It’s that time again. Haiku Buckaroo, hosted at My Mommy’s Place, is off and running and ending tonight actually. Go on over and check out the entries. Or enter yourself! Haiku…all the cool kids are doing it.
(grammar-ku)
The perk of time zones:
Contest deadlines? Not an issue!
Extra haiku time.
(sound-ku)
Cloud clogged cotton sky
Silvery strands of sunlight
Dare to break the haze
(metaphor-ku)
Music is a balm
A melodic unguent
That soothes all ages
(sincere-ku)
Profundity is
What I’m attempting today.
Haikus sound so wise.
(fun-ku)
Haikus need humor.
I’d write more about it but
I have to go pee.
(fu manchu-ku)
Evil facial hair
So sinister and droopy
Lame stereotype
More haikus for Leslie’s Haiku Buckaroo. The deadline is in two days so get over there and get entered!
About the composter in our garden
Marshy brown garden
Microbes gorged on old veggies
Make fertilizer
About what I’m doing right now*
Editing papers
For a doctoral thesis
Shouldn’t I get paid?
Self explanatory, I think
I’ve seen it too much
My loved ones disappearing
Taken by cancer
*I’m editing CB’s papers and no I don’t think he should pay me in anything other than kisses and Ben and Jerry’s
It’s time again for Haiku Buckaroo, hosted over at My Mommy’s Place. I love Leslie and her blog. I can relate to so much of what Leslie discusses and how can I not adore someone who seems to understand and know every obscure reference I ever make? Anyway, I actually first started reading over there during the last Haiku Buckaroo (I submitted a Skin Pee Haiku) and I’ve been reading ever since. If you feel up to the challenge or even if you want to read other people’s haikus, feel free to head on over to Leslie’s blog and check it out. As for me, since I’ve had such a huge inspiration drought lately I think you’ll be seeing several haikus in the coming days (except of course for Fridays which are still entirely devoted to penii). Here’s my first round of ‘kus:
On the evil Belgian weather:
Shades of flinty grey
Race madly across the sky
Hiding hopes of sun
On the lard that is quickly reaccumulating on my ass:
Comforting sugar
Adding weight to my body
The cycle repeats
A final update on Rex, aka “Raincat”:
My elder feline
Has finally overcome
His fear of name tags
