November Haiku

Composting terlet
cuz fuck the city sewer
I’ll handle my own shit

Wanted to take a
nap. dogs sleep in yard in sun
they have the right idea

Have you climbed pancake
mountain? syrup and butter
await at the top

I always go for
the sauciest chips! Please sell
chip powder to me!

In Charlottesville for
the night. Chad! Ashley! I’m here!
lets drink Natty ice!

Monthly, use blood
chalice. Most metal menstruation
keepers of the cup

Tammie says I should
clean out my truck, but it was
just one little roach

I nerd out over
some windows – pulleys, weights and
sash bead, oh baby

camping down by the
river gets real fucking cold
with pee in the bed

Up on the roof top
Santa falls, hope he’s got real
good insurance yall!

hygeine choices like
what day should I take a bath
not today, no sir!

derby hats make me
think about swindling- would
you buy some snake oil?

a bored old man with
a backhoe is hell on the
landscape and old sheds

words mean less these days
actions mean more anyways
put up or shut up

internet news is
less important than dishes
idling in my sink

tired of critiques
of celebrity actions
they are meaning-less.

I choose terrorism
in an Orwellian world
double speak, don’t think

voting either dont
work or means using power
over others, yuck!

new hybrid car- safe
mom says- left it on, silent
it drove off, I ran!

chewing tobacco
is a nasty habit but
I’m a nasty man

have you ever heard
of a vinyl repair man?
NO I don’t think so

I dust my V H
S tapes. Its 2014
get on my level

house looks good. siding
covers rot beneath, just like
local politics

Recent Haiku

Here are some of my recent haiku!

shooting sasquatch with
my baby but damn if we
dont keep aiming high

found mint up and down
banks of the spring fed trout stream
freshening our steps

I’d rather write down
these haiku statuses than
input them online

cloud moving down the
mountain obscuring the orange
sugar maple leaves

quiet morning the
dogs run in the drizzle like
land sharks, tails poke up

enraged moo from up
on the hill my dogs just specks
troublemaking specks

flour on top of
flour, southern cooking yall
biscuits and gravy

I like to watch the
cows chewin on their cud like
me wif sum twizzlers

good friends share ammo
cause bullets and buddies sound
just right put together

cattle trailer shed
bringing country to city
organize yard tools
