Haiku Horizons has the prompt “Before”.
Have we met before?
In another life, perhaps?
Welcome back, my friend.
◊
Before time began
There was only a dark void—
Time creates clutter.
◊
Before now was then.
Beyond now is vaguely when.
Now is all there is.
◊
Before you depart
Set your accounts in order.
Leave with no regrets.
