Haiku Fever epidemic
Am bored out of my
mind in the train; will torture
myself with haiku.
I am afflicted,
when I visit assistants,
with Haiku Fever.
I don't know what langue
to speak with Christianna.
English? French? Flemish?
Why I like Belgium:
Multilingualism and
pommes frites and waffles.
I am sad to leave
Grenoble but it's Sophie's
turn to visit now.
Sometimes I wish that
I lived in an area
more geared t'words tourists.
Then people would be
sure to stop and visit when
they came to the States.
Other passengers
wonder why I keep counting
up to seventeen.
Haiku is too hard.
Not in the least relaxing.
I should learn to knit.
Will you be upset
if I don't bring you a gift?
I don't like to shop.
In elementary
school I hated haiku. Same
now; the "why" changed.
Then: because it was
too difficult. Now: because
it's an addiction.
En fait, a haiku
is supposed to be about
nature. Nature sucks!
