I wrote a Monoku about bamboo and Zen ~ found it fun, and then
I was totally obsessed with writing more ~ so I wrote twenty-four
monokumania is a disease ~ with rhyming end words ~ yes, please
seventeen syllables per line ~ if you get addicted, it's a sign
that you have been infected, for sure ~ it's contagious and there's no cure
* Credit to David Kavanagh for the word-Monokumania.

When you chose to lay your weapon down,
I was baffled;
we had fought for what's felt like a millennia
Killing our brothers like savages--
rabid with a contagious disease
"Slaughter thy enemy!"
But, we're all the same
Fighting the noble cause
"Justice for all!"
Murder
Yes, we know
Nothing is just Black
Nothing is just White
What happened to the Gray?
When did I become my own enemy
When you chose to lay your weapon down,
I was relieved;
no longer are you a moving target, just one to the heart
Seeing you, so close
Is this what your family saw?
I want--
I have to look away from such a sight
We're only pretending to know, to be good;
"I am not the Bad Guy!"
They said it too
What makes us so different--
the right words
When you chose to lay your weapon down,
I was scared;
what did that mean for me?
Killing the Bad Guy-- a Human,
where is the "Good" in me
Falling to my knees,
I dare not look up
What Hero am I giving up like this
How could you have blinded yourself as to not see;
too much Black, too much White
Ignoring the Gray
There are no Heroes in this story

Beware the loose tongue
Spewing out mean, nasty words
Contagious disease
Harming the self and others
Inner longing for solace

COVID-19 a contagious disease
inherited from SARS-COV-2 borne
a new killer disease, called coronavirus.
Weak immune system, a havoc to your
frail body, exposure can kill anybody.
Quarantine, I’m afraid they’ll force, if I didn’t
cancel my flight to Japan, to meet my
Gogyoshi Master Taro Aizu san this coming
March 10, hoping,won’t offend, to cancel by
choice due to pleading voice and pandemic panic.
Cancelling flights a toil, for some airlines, who
don’t care, the money you paid, will fade.Not a
penny reimburse, for traveling expenses was not
properly address. Spending 19 hundred dollars,
a dread and hard to tread, to recover the bread.

It spreads like a contagious disease
Going from one to another
Spreading like a wild fire
As quick as it started, it will end
Bringing a smile, that will last forever.

PTSD…an invisible illness that people may not know,
An illness that anytime the victim could blow,
But nobody cares and compassion hasn’t show,
Because only few can understand….
Others discerned as if a contagious disease,
They try to mock the poor victims and they tease,
Cracking up is not an excuse for them to please,
Because only few can understand…
Who can tell that a person with PTSD is a monster?
Isn’t too harsh for you to judge them and better yet foster?
Why not listen to their sentiments to make them stronger?
…That’s because only few can understand…
You have no idea the agony and hell they’ve been through,
That in their entire life they’re fighting demons to drew,
Their angers killing them, but people never knew,
Because only few can understand…
You are not upright nor perfect for them to degrade,
Hence, you should help them and not to evade,
You shouldn't bully them like nobody or played,
Because I know, only few can understand…

A poisoned mind..
Venom poured and trickled through..
Wounded by rituals thrust upon me.
Intoxication of your madness..
Betrayed effortlessly..
A deceitful cunning environment..
Contagious disease of insanity..
Lies along with false pretenses..
As you claim an undying love
For you use love in the name of fear..
Usage of fear mongering a constant routine
A predator you are..
Stalking on it's prey..
I am your prey
Not your undying love..
A venomous snake spreads toxins..
Underhandedly..
You swam under water..
I swam above water..
Above and beyond..
You had given me the kiss of death..
I had turned away..
Whole heartedly..
As I breathe the breath of life..
The breath of life I am..

On my doorstep it lay
At thine feet thence went
My faith thou flyeth
Under the cloud where lains trouble
Above the cloud took me in a swoop
Thou flyeth my faith in trouble
Like smoke and water won't be controlled
Contagious disease won't be contained
So flyeth the faith which sets me above all
On my doorstep it lay
At thine feet thence went
My faith thou flyeth!!!

Set me free from the bondage you have
You wrapped me in and never let me out
Contagious disease swallowing me whole
To your expense I am not adjourn
Carry me over to where you rest
I beg you please to set me free
Without much further ado
Freedom I pray to bestow upon my feet.
Long days are coming
Seasons are fast approaching
I have quit to see the beauty of thee
Coz your bondages hid my eyes to peek
Tormented soul of thine
To your wilderness of foreign land
I have come to seek emancipation
Yet you moved it to a capital N-O
Why does your wings cover me
To the light of tomorrow that the world brings in
Are you jealous of it
Or you just want me be swallowed by your melancholic sea.
Free me I say
Free me I pray
Free me from your total darkness
Free me from the growling tears of stress.

Every night, the dreams begin
In every dark the dreams worsen
Whether it is a dark in the day
Or a dark in the night, the constant worry never gives a break
Worry is a mysterious torch
That carries no light yet it plays tricks on the mind
To believe so
To see so
Energy is focused on known and unknowns
Especially the unknowns
The sweating
The chest discomforts
The high blood pressures
The food cravings
The increased heart rate
If i stood by the bus station with my worry costume, people may avoid me
Others may start worrying, a contagious disease
Others may want to help but not know how
Others may relate to me and join hands with me
With the world so uneasy
One minute this, one minute that
The subconscious can be filled with the constant fear of what if someone came to my job and started shooting
What if the minute i open my house door, i'd meet my death
What if i don't even have to leave my house, because someone is already planning to drop a bomb
It never gets better

What is happiness?
Just sadness a little less.
Or maybe a chance,
To party n dance.
As a matter of fact,
Happiness is abstract.
Today's sorrow
Can make you smile tomorrow.
Life is meant to smile,
Leave aside your worries for a while.
Let the colours fly,
Never may a soul cry.
To be happy is in your hand,
Don't wait for a reason grand.
Just look around you,
Contented are very few.
Happiness needs no occasion,
Its a game of positive vision.
It can change your life forever,
And let you fall never.
I, myself smile a lot
I maybe happy, maybe not.
It doesn't lessen your pain,
But, it does help you gain.
Its a contagious disease,
Let the virus release.
Be the reason, for a while,
Of someone's precious smile.
You might have a frowning brow,
But don't let your smile go.
Its one thing you can't buy,
And still spread to every guy.
Hope you get the message behind,
Don't be the fox that whined.
All I wish to impart,
Keep smiling till the world breaks apart.
"Smile an everlasting smile, A smile can bring you near to me..."

Is it early in the day?
Is my fingers faster than my heart
Or my heart beats faster than yours
Are my eyes running ahead of my, your legs?
Is this a contagious disease or plague of two?
Are these common symptoms
or an isolated case?
Are you immuned against the ancient poisoned arrow?
Am I the only one who has caught the bug?
Do you feel what I feel?
Do you see what I see?
Have you found a cure so quick,
Whereas, I think what ails us is eternal?
Is your timepiece + or -?
Is it early in the day?
To make little wishes and see them
To think that this is for real
To believe that this our little thing
Will see us all the way and outlast both of us
is it early in the day?

Liveing as a bipolar isn't always easy
I know I need help
But I don't know were to turn
I've tried to get professional
But they all turned their backs
Noone understands
I didn' ask to be this way
It just happened to turn out that way
I'm not a bad person
I just need a little help
I'm not any different then you
I just have mood swings
Bipolar isn't a contagious disease
You wont catch it if you talk to me
I just need some help
Some medication to take
