I’ve been away on holiday this week, getting mostly soaked in North Devon (but also having a fantastic time with my wife and two boys)… Had almost zero phone or wifi coverage for a whole week, so when this prompt finally came through in a traffic jam I couldn’t resist the following…
Stuck fast in traffic
I get cut up and see red
I flip him the bird…

Book Humour. A Sideways Perspective on the Bonkers Business of Books
This is the blog of a woman who is seriously on the edge and I mean right ON the edge…no, not there… just a little bit further… further than that…no, further still…just a tiny bit more… just move slightly to the right a little…no, that’s too much…just move a tad to the left…that’s right, just there…now you’ve moved too far to the left… Damn, what part of the ‘on the edge’ do you not understand? Oh, and her matricidal boy genius, come devil spawn.

Well that needed to be expressed… bet you felt better after. 🙂 And the haiku left a smile on my face.

Thanks Florence… Much better to vent through rhyming verse than in other ways, I reckon!

Not much “zen” in this one but most understandable. ☺

It’s a “thought about it” rather than “did it” haiku… venting through poetry!

I’m running around with a bumper sticker these days that reads, “Haikus confuse me. / Sometimes they make no sense./ Hand me the pliers.” Reactions vary from “huh?” to “that’s not really a haiku” to laughter.
