Bam! Boo!

Originally my plan for tonight was to continue yesterday's story Call of Doody. But let's be real here. I worked late, I'm tired now and the last thing I want to do is post something on the internet that I wrote in a sleep-deprived stupor. Ergo, I'm going to keep it short and sweet tonight in order to reduce the odds of embarrassment as much as possible. 

I've decided to write a haiku. This haiku is about my bamboo plant.


BAM! BOO!

Tall, green and growing
Alive against every odd
I love this damn thing


Is it my best work? God, I hope not. But hey, I said my goal was to write. And with so many days in a year, they're not all gonna hit it out of the park. I'll be happy if one does, to be honest. Making it a habit is an important part of this process, so for now I'm going to be content with the fact that at least I didn't do nothing and I'm not going to beat myself up over it. Hakuna Matata.

Good night!

Love,
Ryssa

  1. If you are going to write, you have to write. It takes a lot of discipline to write for a prescribed time every day no matter what. I think you have the makings of a good, perhaps a great writer. I wish you the very best in this endeavor. Happy 2015. May it be the year of the young writer. Lots of Love from Texas.
