Haikus

comfort is your death

the trappings of your success

futures you divest

children look to you

emulate the things you do

stick like weird green glue

nursed on confusion

sold hard on the delusion

of things so untrue

schooled by child soldiers

with monkeys on their shoulders

and money for guns

problems cant be solved

'rinconsistency resolved

by means of their cause

if you see rejoice

for there is only one choice

after another

if you choose wisely

the cause of all suffering

will be in your hand

Smile when you see

that the cause of suffering

is the cause of joy

don't shed one false tear

don't reject your shame & fear

or curse the heavens

When all you hold dear

one day up and disappears

the truth will be clear

and then you will see

that there is nothing to be

that no one is free

Author's Note

I was with some friends and strangers when a challenge was issued to see who could write the best poem. I surprised myself and wrote this in about 15 minutes.
I never edited it.
