Haiku Corner

You may not be aware of it, but I'm quite the haijin. Oh yeah, no fooling. Sometimes I used to tell friends to come up with a subject, and I'd make up one on the spot. Some of these are results of such prompts.

Five syllables here
Seven are placed in this row
We now end with five

Luke, join the dark side
Obi-Wan has taught you well
Punch it Chewbacca

The cow stands alone
Mooing like a lonely sausage
My rash now itches

Happy days are here
One o’clock, two o’clock rock
The Fonz, he says, “Aaaaaaay!”

They say this cat Shaft’s
A bad mutha….shut cho mouth!
Just talkin’ bout Shaft

Watching the show “COPS”
That house sure looks familiar
They took all my stuff

Oedipus searches
Seeks killer who brought on curse
Ends in tragedy

MacGyver is trapped
Only has string and toothpick
So he builds a bomb

Oh no! Godzilla!
Send out fakey plastic tanks
Now send big robot

Bring us shrubbery
We are the Knights Who Say “NEE!”
Please do not say “it”

William Harrison
Gave a very long first speech
One month later: dead

Red Sox win the pennant
All the fans take to the street
Chanting: Yankees Suck!

The Oscar goes to………
Roberto Benigni
Goes completely whack

Ollie to method grab
Switch grind to impossible
Man, you must be stoked

(Not mine, regretibly)
Huh, me want cookie
NROM NROM NROM NROM NROM NROM NROM!
NROM NROM NROM NROM NROM!
