Haiku Madness

FOUL!!!

A hare from his head
to which you shall not cause harm
you bunny killer!

You bunny killer!
You foe of the cloying cute.
Have you won so far?

have you won so far
you with your fancy chess moves
swapping pawn for pawn

swapping pawn for pawn
as we watch congress do this
on a massive scale
(I gotta quit reading news sites and then coming back to the haiku game!)

on a massive scale
it’s easy to overlook
devilish details

Devilish details
of obfuscated Fed Regs
provide my income

Provide my income
Its Friday, need to kill cells
From my useless brain

from my useless brain
haikus are slow to arise
preview did not help

preview did not help
the movie sucked rotten eggs
Battlefield Earth

Battlefield Earth
How come thousand-year old jets
Can still fly and shoot?

“Can still fly and shoot?”
I asked the World War II ace;
he smiled, gave thumbs-up.

He smiled, gave thumbs-up
then he disapeared into
An elephant’s butt

An elephants butt
is not as wide as a barn
but it is very close

FOUL!!!

but it’s very close
said owner of the losing
lottery ticket

Lottery ticket
Tax on those who suck at math
Yet, a chance to dream

Yet, a chance to dream
is one of the best parts of
sleeping in my bed.

Sleeping in my bed
an army of biting lice
time to change the sheets

Time to change the sheets
sheets are often like men’s minds
resistant to change
