Looking through a Microscope – A Haiku
Nucleus in view
Eyes see cellular battles
Bacteriophage

Nobody Cares – A Haiku
A lack of action
Trade important for mundane
That’s why Earth degrades.
2013 Albert Moyer, Jr.
During general conversation, meetings, and social media, it has become quite clear to me that the majority of people really do not care about what is important. They will complain about what is happening around them, but at the first suggestion of helping the problem, they have things to do, they do not want to talk about it, or the obvious principle is right in front of them, but they dislike it, and do not want to use it. It’s like they know the vegetables will sustain them, but they would rather starve. The world is becoming full of the,”I want!” and “Look at me!” people. We need more,”I do!” and ,”I want to help.” people. Consumers without producers is unsustainable, and for anything to happen there always has to be action. Words without action are useless.
Some days my inspiration for Haiku’s comes from staring at the things on my desk.
Liquid Paper – A Haiku
Coverage of ink
My written mistakes all gone
Time to write again.

Here is a haiku that captures the feel of Texas In August. It is my least favorite month in our wonderful state.
Welcome to Texas In August
Wet humidity.
A blistering heat daily.
Mosquitos feeding.
Browsing through my photos, I came across this macro photo I took of some seriously parched earth. It inspired me to write a haiku. Texas went through a monster drought two years ago and has not recovered to this day. The rain has been coming, but we need so much more. Remember! Water is life!
Parched Earth
The ground cracks open.
Life around dries up and dies.
Water the savior.
