haiku for Morrissey:
i got my hair cut
today. a lock could be yours
but you'd never ask.

Penned a crappy poem
Reached and put it in your hand
Meant nothing by it


H.O.B. - Las Vegas - 12/21/99


Your fine pompadour
Pomade heavy ascension
Reaching for heaven


In the Interest of Boredom


beyond the glare of
inside lights, my window frames
temporary scenes.

            That's six syllables. I thought haikus were supposed to be 5-7-5 ??

                  I penned the pompadour haiku out of boredom and vanity. I am secretly (well, now publicly) pleased it was chosen to be part of a main news item on this fabulous website.

                  I would rub myself in peanut butter and shout profanity in a foreign language on a street corner to develop even a faint connection to Morrissey in some way.

                  I thank ThinLizzie for initiating the whole thing.

                              these poems are not haiku because they do not contain reference to a season. this requirement is actually more important than the syllable distribution.

                              i expect more than i should.
