Naumaddic Pieces

Haiku, and senryu pieces of experience, fragments in forms ever-changing ... always chosen by the moment itself.

Temptress lake

I've never drowned before

... well, not like her.

“Each day is a journey,
and the journey itself

home ..."

-- Matsuo Basho

Nothing here is finished.

Nothing here is perfect.

Nothing here will last.

A little about me ...

RichardBarnes: I'm a writer, professional linguist, translator, graphic designer and independent scholar. Some of my many loves are books, journaling, poetry, untouched nature, science, philosophy, exploration, papercrafts, fine arts and classical music. I have an insatiable curiosity and practice the haiku moment as a religion.
