Haiku Madness

I’m bad to the bone
Osteoporosis says
I’m bad in the bones

I’m bad in the bones,
in the muscles, tendons too.
Can’t run from your age.

Can’t run from your age,
But my hopped up Hoveround
Leaves it in the dust.

Leaves it in the dust.
Leaves what? My heart. She broke it
in a million shards.

In a million shards
Like broken glass valentines

As a snappy comeback, 2
Days after the dis

Days after the dis-

Much speculation.

Much speculation
If OJ did it or not
But we know he did

But we know he did

Human to a fault.

Why, officer, I had to.
Kid owed me money.
