Poetic narratives
Maya, at the excellent Postcards from Sacramento, has been trying to express herself only in haiku lately. Fantastic. Being the unoriginal idea-thief I am, I decided to try my hand at it as well.
I present to you a . . .
Haiku, on my current mindset:
No pants shall I wear
until given a job or
a breakfast invite.
My car
is full of crap
I have failed to unpack.
To do so seems odd, as it just
goes back.
I ate a scramble today
'twas massive in ev'ry way
I gulped it all down
and said with a frown
"Gaw-damn that cook came to play"
Mother has lilies.
They smell like my feet'd, drank I
naught but vinegar.
Those vinegar-and-foot smelling plants are real. Avoid orange lilies.
