Haiku Friday: Riff on swine flu
Written by washwords on May 8, 2009 – 10:10 amI’m all knotted up
Disastrous case of twine flu
The cure: a good yarn
My pal’s back is hurt
Perhaps she has the spine flu
The cure: lay supine
Niece “bucket” age two
no shocker has caught “mine flu”
other tykes: adieu!
Complainin’ and mopey
I have the whine flu fer shure
Cure? methinks WINE flues!
I could go all day but lemme hear yours! leave a comment below
Debate? No debate?
Candidates love and love not
Lets get it started.
Metro whistlers, SHHHH!
Sometimes I wake up grumpy,
sometimes let him sleep
“solved.” without mccain.
it’s raining in washington
since obama left
snowdrifts of paper
email, voice-mail, lists to do
how to shovel out
and yet, even here,
even now, with so much flux
there is peace. in love.

I liked the way it moves from swine to wine:-

Sure, it may be. But my experience is a little different…
