Let me crochet about it and get back to you.

Last night, as I wrestled with an array of communication breakdowns, with that June supermoon blasting through my window, I started on the first few rows of what will be a very large sphere.

Haiku for a Super Moon

Capricorn full moon
Challenging my boundaries,
I'll crochet your ass.

Ye Olde Summere Jobbe

Haiku for Inaccurate Depictions of Medieval Europe

I don't like to judge
But your accent angers me,
Bad ren faire actor
Huzzah.

Silent Shout

Haiku for Happy Poking

My band is so loud
We just got our set shut down
Before it started

What's wrong with you people, by bzzzzgrrrl

Any new blogger (or possibly, new writer, though it's been about thirty five years since I was that, so who can say) knows that it can be very scaryweirdlonelyhardstrange to write into the ether without any feedback. That's why bloggers enable comments on their blogs, so people will respond.

As usual, the opinions expressed in this post are mine and only mine, and are not (necessarily) representative of the opinions of the tremendous Calvin Rey or 17ADay.

Cal created this
You read it, love it, laugh, cry.
Join in, for Pete's sake.

How do I get that gig?

Haiku for Higher Education

Paying gatekeepers
To become a gatekeeper
= Pyramid scheme, obvs

Nature an' shit

This might be the most "haiku" haiku on this blog yet. It comes from trying to explain, yesterday, what's so calming about a mountain creek.

Haiku for June 12, 2013

Running water, fire
Night traffic from the high rise
White noise, steady flow

Talk about pop music

Haiku for June 10, 2013

"What is that?" she says,
Listening to Madonna.
"That is not a note."

HBD to His Purple Highness

Haiku for June 7, 2013

Watching Purple Rain
Taught me how to be a man.
Happy birthday, Prince.

Also, thanks, Mom, for making Prince movies part of my upbringing. Little did you know...
