The Lighter Side of JzB

Every day visits*
From Moose, Goose, and Orb Weaver
All seized by Haiku


"Why moose and goose?" you may ask. Back on 2/04/13 Pirate wrote a haiku with an elk in it, and I responded with
one with a moose and then included him every day. A few days later in comments Mystic asked "Where's the goose?"
So I started including her with this post on 2/07. A week later on the 14th, Mark Readfern
asked for and received a spider. The rest is history.

*Well, most days, anyway. Grant me a bit of poetic license.

Carpe Diem #247, Willpower




~ 1 ~

confrontation
they want me to just shut up
but i won't


~ 2 ~

every year
grow a new set of antlers
fly a thousand miles


~ 3 ~

on a sticky thread
fly has the will to depart
but not the power

  1. I guess it all depends on what the confrontation is about, doesn't it?

  2. All perfect examples of willpower. The last example, having the will but not the power...very thought provoking.

  4. Deep words. It's difficult to shut up when your conscience won't let you.
