Haikus

Last night I spent the evening bonding with my younger daughter. We did this by texting Haikus back and forth. It was part conversation, part poetry, all fun. With this in mind, I figured I'd post a few of my writings. Most of these Haikus came to mind during the night, after the Haiku text-a-thon with my daughter.


Lambs
Lotion on its skin
Or it gets the hose again
I don't want to die

Addict
Doobie cigarette
A fifth of Jim Beam whiskey
Time to overdose

Club
Two important rules
You don't talk about Fight Club
Don't talk about it

Floyd
Impenetrable
Bloodied fists pound at brick walls
The judge is an ass

Ozzy
John Michael Osbourne
Ozzy to the world at large
Metal Godfather

Grandson
Jameson Louis
Cutest boy in the whole world
Nothing like his dad

Daughter
She's a horse's ass
Doesn't know what respect means
Cute as a button

Religion
Puppies and rainbows
Are proof of God's love for us
Satan gave us sex

Poetry
Haikus are easy
A few syllables of thought
Nothing to it man
