    EARLY HAIKU

    By Richard Day on Thu, 04/20/2017 - 12:25pm |

    Tides go in and out
    Billo can't figure out why
    Cosmologically
    But now Billo's out
    The moon had no hand in this
    Justifiably
    http://www.politico.com/story/2017/04/19/bill-oreilly-out-at-fox-news-23...
    Now Trump is without
    His favorite cheer leader
    Indefensibly
    http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/video/trump-defends-bill-oreilly-amid-hara...
    Trump plays stratego
    Loses an aircraft carrier
    Catostrophically
    https://trofire.com/2017/04/19/donald-trump-lost-aircraft-carrier-almost...
    We did not lose it
    My military is best
    Indisputably
    Warm guns do the best
    Aircraft carriers bestest
    Geographically
        (Speaking, hahahahaahahahah)
    But where are my guns?
    Trump might wish some fun
    Hypothetically
    Trump is just a chump
    But a chump making money
    So treacherously
    http://time.com/4746348/donald-trump-turkey-conflict-interest/?xid=homepage
    Russians are coming
    Exxon's chiefs are so excited
    Pornographically
    https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/19/business/energy-environment/exxon-mob...
    Anyway, where are
    Our aircraft carriers now?
    Incandescently
    (or radarly? hahahhah)
    Pence does make some sense
    But Noah's Ark looms behind
    Irrationally
    https://theintercept.com/2016/11/15/mike-pence-will-be-the-most-powerful...
    Dump Trump is a phrase
    Impeachment constitutional?
    Pure insanity
    Poor players just strut
    Strutting across a false stage
    So incessently
    My stage is a blog
    I strut and fret upon it
    Imaginarilly
    hahahahah
    I hear the end is near
    For six decades I heard this
    incessently
    Candy is dandy
    But is liquor so quicker?
    Undeniably
    What was the question?
    Chocolate is delicious
    Indescribably
    The ponds are now clear
    Spring has sprung; winter is gone
    Satisfyingly

    I REST MY CASE?
    HE DID IT; HE MISSED THE BARN!
    I have never seen a man go through a day so fast?

    Glad they finally got rid of Bill O'Reily.  No more war on Christmas.

    Hi Momoe.

    I am a week late and a dollar short. hahahaha

    My usual situation.

    I love this song.

    I must always think of Mr. Smith.

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    I am no poet

    But poetry sates my soul

    Oh, I miss our Smith

    Oh when Jesus Walked

    Was I dust in a vacuum (Is vacuum three syls?)

    I must rest my case.

    hahahhahah

    I LOVE THIS SONG FOR CHRISSAKES!

    Dick's mashup is proof

    That the Haiku is best viewed

    In its natural state.

    Dick, Buddha - best buds.
    In the nothingness they find
    Solace, wisdom, peace.

    Bloggers beat out news
    Like some hep Kerouac cat
    Seeking now, what's hip

    We're all preparing
    For that ultimate journey - 
    Bridge it, the bardo

    Serge Gainesborough said
    Take a Harley Davidson
    Galaxina nods

    Surge past the divide,
    Racers in some Mad Max film,
    Across the wasteland

    Burroughs' Western Lands
    Wait, pristine Elysium -
    Payback for what's life.

    In our dire struggle
    To say and do ever more
    Is a time to stop.

    & an homage to Dorothy Stratten

    If a haiku falls
    In a blogroll unnoticed
    Did it fall at all?
