Description
March 1Reverberating
Through my ears, around my head
Music in the air.
March 2
A monstrous rumble
The shaking, one of many
I feel like tacos.
March 3
Lost, alone, outside
Left behind, my keyhole stares
My keys are in there.
March 4
Time, passing quickly
The world doesn't stop turning
So get off your ass.
March 5
A swing and a miss
Yet another chance wasted
Why am I so dumb?
March 6
Try once, try once more
Try until you get it right.
Try twice, get it wrong.
March 7
Leaning against me
The pages, clean and empty
I need some more skill.
March 8
Laughing, fit to burst
Flickering on, off, in, out
DARTH VADER IS SHORT!
March 9
I hope you buy this
I spaced on this very one
It's not March Ninth now.
March 10
March Nine again now
It's not really March the Tenth
So hush hush, don't speak.
March 11
Sitting on my couch
Click, click goes my controller
I'm owning his ass.
March 12
Talking, from my hand
Messages, reaching out there.
Arguments from them.
March 13
Thirteen is not bad
It's not really unlucky
Not for me, at least.
March 14
Shut your friggin' face
It's my business, not yours, 'kay?
Talk 'bout something else.
March 15
Chiizu wa tame
da. Watashi wa
fuka desu ka.
March 16
Speak in Japanese
It is a hard task for all
Goddamn this language.
March 17
Seken wa tame
desu. Maro wa uttousshi
da. Gomen nasai.
March 18
I think this is wrong
Japanese is hard to speak
Everything is wrong.
March 19
A friend is in need
A friend I have never met
I can do nothing.
March 20
Anticipation
Presents, friends, lots of money
All for my birthday.
March 21
I bought a brand new
shirt. It has ninjas on it.
I love it so much.
March 22
My party was fun
I was given much money
About one fifty.
March 23
Weekends are the best
Especially the long ones
Like this one, four days.
March 24
My birthday is nigh
Tomorrow, actually.
Give me a present!
March 25
Today is my day
A day set aside, for me.
No interruptions.
March 26
The end is near, now.
Only five more haiku left.
Can I do them all?
March 27
I'm feeling different
Certainly not better, though
Different to before.
March 28
Embarassment, there.
Not much to speak of, somehow.
God, when will this end.
March 29
This haiku thing is
getting quite old. It is hard
to keep up with them.
March 30
Holy shit, is it
over? Nope, one more day still.
Hurry the fuck up.
March 31
Hooray, the end is
here. This is the last haiku.
Bye for now, people.

very interesting take on the project. i do know how difficult it is to churn out a haiku a day.

The churning them out part isn't hard, it's the remembering to do it part. Yesterday I had to do four. Thank you for commenting, you reminded me to do one today.

It's only 45 minutes long, so make sure the popcorn is pre-cooked.

I know exactly how you feel about the key situation. You have described it vividly, and it comes back to mind - exactly that way.

That's pretty awesome, because I'm not putting terrible amounts of effort into this.

two haiku that both rumble 
hunger and music - both enjoyed together with equal gusto!

I love how this haiku is set up: the short, simple first and last lines, and the middle line runs on, portraying the continuous stream of music. That's how I see it, at least.

Really? I don't think it's that good... it's just something I whipped up in thirty seconds.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I think it's a great start. But the real challenge will be to keep it up for 30 more days.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I still have today's to do, but I'll have more than enough time later. And then there's the other 29 days. But meh - I'll get it done.
