    poof! split from RTDNTOTO8


    A good idea
    We love haiku around here
    Well, most of us do
    People will miss that it once meant something to be Southern or Midwestern. It doesn't mean much now, except for the climate. The question, “Where are you from?” doesn't lead to anything odd or interesting. They live somewhere near a Gap store, and what else do you need to know? - Garrison Keillor

    That's too limiting
    good haiku needs room to run
    But what do I know?

    This week has been rough
    Sleepless days and sleepless nights
    Beer weekend on tap

    Planned for a nice day
    Then came the rain; relentless
    Fancy clothes are soaked

    Clouds cover the sky

    Many thoughts are circling
    Tossing, turning, ill at ease
    Who knows the darkness?
