moutainous skyline
brings inspiration worth more
than the gems within

(another novel-inspired haiku, as I don't actually live anywhere near any mountains)

Mistaken signals
cause awkward situations
late in the evening

(As a word-padding exercises for Nanowrimo, I've started including haiku epithets at the head of each of the chapters of my novel. This is one that I wrote tonight, for Chapter 10)

last-minute moments:

going under the wire

with seconds to spare.

little purple bar
showing what others have done,
taunting me always

going through motions
hoping things will get better,
waiting for closure

Sometimes, 3 AM
is when we can be our best
and most creative

the only problem
with setting with constant guide posts?
they tend to confound.
