Portland Haiku

mind hazy, but quick.
my thoughts, hard to keep up with.
life is enlightened.

tinkering on stuff.
taking care of random things.
a peaceful evening.

i had one before,
but it escaped from my head.
this will have to do.

here i am awake,
for no good reason other
than to be awake.

a day starts early,
but not until tomorrow.
i think i shall sleep.

taking a step back,
gaining perspective again.
a deep breath to calm.

what is happening?
where do things trek and travel?
how do i get there?

music plays today.
the melodies encompass
my life, my world grows.

empty thoughts flying,
the mind is full yet adrift,
slow and ponderous.

sleepy and tired.
body and mind desire
some quiet resting.
