Quit Using

Quit using my soap:

Doesn't it hurt your manhood

to smell like roses?

Do You Remember

Do you remember
how fervent our June start?
Will you let me know?

Written for Sensational Haiku Wednesday's prompt "anniversary." Congrats SHW on your anniversary!

Rain-Soaked Petals

Rain-soaked petals the
carpet for walk umbrella'd

by flowering trees.

Cuckoo Workoo

On his blog, Eric Alder throws some amazing haiku tantrums called Haiku Koo-Koo. Yesterday I decided to quickly crank out my own batch--all related to the workday--as I passive-aggressively waited out quitting time. Fun to blow off steam and share with Jingle's Poetry Rally! Rally on and enjoy...especially if you are reading these on the clock ;-)

His Hotmails go
straight to work email's junk:
Right where they belong.

I'll never wear this
bra with this t-shirt again:
Sweatercoat rescue.

New York bosses want
everything yesterday:
They squeeze us, bleed us.

IM spells danger:
Could've been fired for the
naughty things I did.

Someone lunched on fish
then polluted the garbage:
Stinky reminder.

I wonder how my
fantasy baseball's going?
Time to take a look.

If I just made more
money I could afford to
leave this quiet death.

I Count

 I count syllables:
 Jot sticky-note haiku and
 Wait 'til quitting time.

Healing Is Knowing

Healing is knowing,

finding and loving what's best

for you, only you.

Finding New Cool

Finding new cool on

the crisp weave of springtime sheets:

Flung out, not huddled.
