Some creative types advocate a method to increase creativity by writing a poem a day forevermore. Here’s my effort to increase my creativity and avoid perfectionism.

Sunday

Haikus are easy

Not easy, but straightforward

I just penned one

Monday

Perfection is good

Shipped is preferable

Why not try for both?

Tuesday

Now uninspired

Creativity in waves

Better than ever

Wednesday

Sassy Daisy-May

Loves long walks, runs, and car rides

Cuddling next to me

Thursday

Social media

Ahhhhhh LinkedIn, Facebook, GitHub

Not enough time for them

Friday

Televise e-sports

Power to the nerdy folks

Stop praising athletes

Saturday

No photographs please

I am not wearing makeup

Wait, I never do

Sunday

Continue kicking ass

And you will be rewarded

By life and your peers

Monday

Anonymity

Increases your bravery

For better or worse

Tuesday

Whoa crazy lady

Are you really afraid of dogs?

No need to freak out

Wednesday

Bro, that’s not haiku

Moras are not syllables

Pedantic diff’rence

Thursday

Mediocrity

Happens all too easily

Eat your own dog food

Friday

Exercise takes time

And food is so damn tasty

That’s why I am fat

Saturday

Home maintenance sucks

Paychecks paid straight to my Lowe’s

Days spent in the yard

Sunday

Countless thoughts to share

Until I’m at the keyboard

Then it just dries up

Monday

Off me hungry cat

I’ll feed you when I wake up

Until then, shutup

Tuesday

Haters gonna hate

Eagerly trolling people

Keep daring greatly

Wednesday

You can do an’thing

Except defy gravity

That’s natural law

Thursday

Onward and upward

Or perhaps out and over

Life’s path’s uncharted

Friday

Chinese twice today

Tongue and belly are happy

Heart and scale are mad

Saturday

Today I ran miles

Slow down, breathe, focus, and go

Push to run longer

Sunday

Can I make one rhyme

Easy enough this one time

Twice would be a crime

Monday

Authentication

Usable security

My new job, Toopher

Tuesday

Deer in the greenbelt

Just hanging out and sleeping

What a peaceful scene

Wednesday

What is modern rock?

Black Keys, Muse, Mumford and Sons

Radio needs variety

Thursday

Sunny and real hot

It is summer in Texas

Gonna get sweaty

Friday

Good end to the week

Kayaking to the sunset

Outdoors in Austin

Saturday

What the?! Up is down…

Stupid reverse scrolling Mac

Why do I love you?
