An election haiku I’m stealing from a Salon reader:

Gullible Red States
You know not what you have done
Too bad for the rest

Excellent! Let me try one now:

Simpleton poser
Gloating in the cool fall air
Your ass is showing

Here’s my humble contribution:

Good Americans,
and also the bad, must now
find ways to unite

YOU WON, GEORGE, WITH FEAR.
WHY NOT TRY TO INSPIRE?
BECAUSE IT’S HARD WORK.

Only works if you stretch out “inspire” to two syllables, Steven. 😉

Our waiter at lunch today assured us that inspire was only two syllables, but that it is okay to make it three when using it in a poem. I checked his grammar license, and it was valid, so he must be right.

A brilliant haiku from Steve R.’s friend, Rani (all syllables correctly used):

I think I will puke
If I have to hear you speak
About unity.

(I know she’s talking about the hypocrite Bush, NOT you, John!)
