No matter how old
No matter how far you're down
Hope springs eternal

Writing this haiku
I misplaced my abacus
so it's really difficult to finish it.

You may have to define the term "abacus" for the younger people here. While you are at it, you might as well define the term "slide rule".

By the way, these haikus are great. You guys are awesome.

My jail door stays locked
listening to the liar
the Addicted Voice

My jail door unlocked
by listening to
my Authentic Voice

I step out the door
lock it behind me, choosing
light over darkness
