been very busy fighting for poetic justice, here's one that's sure to appall some people I know

Me in Haiku

Sing long silly songs
eat fudge, French fries, fried wontons
happy hedonist


OCD, CD,
ASAD, PDO*
poems not Prozac


Never talk to god
I claim to be atheist
but she talks to me


a-l-o-n-e
small boat sailing on the sea
a-l-o-n-e


Roots hang on to hope
after rains wash home away
tenacious seedling


Pretty porcupine
seeks soft-shelled crab with complex
for joint tax filing


You: carry the bags,
put spiders outside, love cats
Me: iambic ink


*obsessive compulsive disorder, clinical depression,
acute social anxiety disorder, personality disorder
