Haiku - Day One
I will write one haiku every day during my first 90 days of sobriety.
(this one is a true story)


Six bars in two hours
On a wave of ecstasy
The car is totaled


Everyone write a haiku!

Went to the dancing
But instead of romancing
Just blackouts n tears

I now have no doubt
No matter how bad the day
Drinking makes it worse

One day it hit me
Why put sobriety off?
Life is there, waiting

I'm weak- you are strong
I possess all your evils
Where did I go wrong?

Fearful of dying
Yet might spend rest of my life
Wishing I was dead

With a sober mind
I have all the same problems
But one less to solve

I could not go on
I could only surrender
A new day dawning
