Stories from the Crowd: Haikus

by Rian Kochel

I want for nothing
except for an escape from
everything I need


Long days melt on ice
cigarettes burn in protest
whiskey wins the war


This life is a gift
a gift that has been given
without a receipt


Slumber and trouble
are separate entities
trouble never sleeps


I woke up talking
in my dream, you were laughing
I hate alarm clocks


Run down by a car
dancing until 4 am
this was my weekend
