Haiku for Haiku's Sake

Poetry has always been important to me. I think it lets us say things that mean something, without getting trapped in the descriptive narrative of fiction. I'm toying around with the idea of a book entirely of poetry... to be finished when I darn well get around to it. Two Wizard Roulette is the big project right now, but I took today to start organizing some work that I had already done and patch it together with a few new verses.
This being an author's blog, maybe I should share one from today... The poems start in early morning, while the poet is still asleep and gradually flow in the rhythm of the day. With that introduction, I give you, "Whirlwind".

Rush, scurry, dart, run
Weekday is here. See! Do! Be!
Exercise wheel routine.

Whirlwind of activity
But always the same. Do! More!
Never stop, never!

Sun is high, burning
Down light, activity is meaning.
Doing now is right!
