Wow. You no sooner throw down a Haiku Challenge than the commentariat replies with verve and talent. Check this out, sheer awesomeness from Wild:
I eat the donutsGlazed and chocolate ones tooSometimes blueberryWelfare music playsTaxpayers buy them for meMeanwhile, I snarf moreHelp me Joe BidenMy welfare is running outFeed me more donuts
Whoa, well done Wild, that's a veritable ode. Then there's Red, going free-form and evocative. Here:
Fireflies in the mapleDeep dark woodsHot tea on the porch
Not to be outdone, Anon Mike_C offers us this gem:
Front windows rolled down.Why, when fifty-two degrees?Nigerian Uber
Not shabby, eh? And Paul gets down to it, in homage to Red's inimitable verse:
Chaos sown every dayAre you not entertainedHave a donut
What can I say. Sorry, Kerouac, we got you beat. But who am I to judge, this one's for LL and perhaps it'll resonate with you too:
A sharp bayonetDark prints in the forest snowMoonlight gleams on ice
Keep 'em coming.
Your Old Friend,
LSP
