The Future Armagedon (Haiku)

True reality
Replaced by screen images
We will disappear

Bionic robots
Like people but without souls
Work for remaining

No need for people
Birth only by permission
Population gone

When power goes out
All activity ceases
It may not come on

The apocalypse
Is not from an asteroid
But power outage

We are evolving
Into a population
Unsustainable

Basic Need? (Haiku)

Give it a name
People will glom onto it
We need to belong

The Baby Boomers
Gen-X and Millennials
Proud of common traits

But is it for sure
Or made-up hype to sell stuff
I vote for made-up

Differentiate
Common theme for marketers
A ruse to raise sales

Procrastination Pays (Haiku)

Don't do anything
Even what you want to do
Before you have to

Doing it before
Often leads to redoing
Schedule stops all that

Doing it later
Often means doing it once
Instead of often

V i r i l i t y (Haiku)

I used to lose sleep
Worried about my image
Until it dawned on me

It was only me
Who was concerned about this
And no one else cared

So then, off to sleep
The sleep of the confident
No longer worried

Commitment (Haiku)

Do it 'till you're good
Then find something else to do
Do it 'till you're good

Commit to do it
Do it to achieve an end
Working at the means

The bigger the "it"
The longer it takes to do
Even a lifetime

There's satisfaction
Pursuing an ideal
Even happiness

Remember Me? (Haiku)

Obliterated
Footprints on the beach of life
By the ebb and flow

We walk through our life
Our legacy a gravestone
Family recalls

The stones of our lives
Filling the cemeteries
Or ashes in urns

I wept a sad tear
For an old friend now enurned
Never forgotten

And so will I be
By my family and friends
Until they are dead
