Haiku poetry

may not rhyme, but still it is

not just simple prose!

Happiness isn't getting what you want, it's wanting what you've got.

I can't help but think

Al Gore's private jet fumes in-

crease global warming.

Also, the hot air

 

Al spews while self promoting

 

ain't beneficial.

It seems we can now

turn from Haiku poetry

to Allegories!

At this time of year,

the concern is allergies-

not allegories.

Allegories mixed

with these allergies, et Al,

might be quite Gory!

I think "To and Fro"

 

is more likely "Ebb and Flow".

 

Love/Hate...the fine line.

The lines dividing

love and hate are finely drawn,

yet easily bleed.

No amount of 'glue'

can perfectly mend a heart-

It's forever scarred.

Better to have a

heart that is broken, than to

have a heartless soul.

Chose pain over numb?

Select tears over no cares?

Sadness or nothing?

Numb and uncaring?

An empty void for a soul?

The thought causes tears!

How to define "soul"?

Is it having a conscience?

Aretha's music?

Defining what's soul?

Only when one feels it, can

one know its' meaning

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
