haikus you can use

Which is better:

the insecurity of total freedom

or the insecurity of commitment?

The first one takes faith in yourself and your capacity for self-discipline--because you will be tempted to trade in your independance.

The second involves faith in someone else and that person's capacity for self-discipline--because that person will be tempted to trade in their devotion.

I don't suppose we choose.

That sheet of plastic
Haunts the tree out my window
Like a toxic ghost.

My left hand is smart,
Subtle and diplomatic.
My right is a brute.

From six to seven
A symphony of alarms
Like loud beeping birds.

My age yesterday:
Thirty three and a third years--
One third century.

Distracted spider
Falls from her incomplete web.
I play solitaire.

My head is aching:
six crosses, three upper-cuts,
and twenty-five jabs.

This here is a test.
I may start using this site.
I'm ambivalent.
