kamikaze flakes:
with banzai cries they streak to
their deaths and splatter

  3. Aah, perhaps not meant as poetry. Clearly, though, you have been pelted with Michigan's unique huge spring snow splotches, a combo of slush and hail and whatever floats in the air above us...

  4. depends on your definition of poetry -- i have an entire book of haiku about spam (the canned luncheon meat) and used to write fedex haiku to ge people to read the new trademarking guidelines at my agency job ...

    "You say that my poems are
    poetry. Well they are not, and
    until you understand why they
    are not, you won't see their poetry." - Ryokan

    again, just being silly. (or still, as the case may be.)

  5. y'know, you're absolutely right, jb -- silly can be good. sometimes, it's even *better* ...

    Is being a smidge modest
    His poetry ROCKS

  7. well thank you.

    hm. perhaps my first book should be a collection of screwball haiku and odd poems.

    other people publish goofy stuff like that ...
