Haiku cycle: To the bottom of the well.

Wounded Warrior sits
Alone on the highway. A
vulture circles above.

Stranded alone in Life
Liquor falsely comforts men
Wandering without love.

The warrior in us
Dies when he drinks. Evil spirit
Lives in alcohol, wounds soul.

Many men fall far down.
Wicked is the man that lets
Evil control his life.

Oak tree tall and full
Rises proud above the plain.
Drunk man sees it not.

Wise man watches the
World. Learning from others, he
Grows within Nature.

To love and live and
Die. In Nature. In Peace. Time.
Eagle soars above.
