What’s the difference between a painter and an artist?
A haiku and a query
the painter looks at,
seeking mirror fragments, but
the artist looks up.

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.

so much thought into so few words. Well done!
You lift our vision with this poem!
Way to turn haiku into epiphany! Well executed.
I'm not overly fond of haiku but this one nails it on ALL levels! So Good!
