Clean Is A Relative Thing: Revolutionary ImproVerse Haiku

Carp slime and bird poop/
and sand in lake water still/
make me feel cleaner.

To The Unknown Shorebirds: Revolutionary ImproVerse Haiku

I don’t know what you/
are but you are beautiful./
I’m glad you flew by.

It’s peaceful when my/
footprints and shorebirds’ can mix/
alone on the beach.

Wise is when you know/
there are things which could kill you,/
but you stay away.

Act fast! You can save/
a mom’s world one shopping cart/
(and child) at a time.

Traffic “experts” go/
through a two-sided buffet/
in just one line. Why?

When streets are empty,/
you go ahead! Make your own/
Warholian art.

I should be glad kids/
on the flight are laughing, but/
I am just annoyed.

My own Star-Spangled/
Banner will wave longer than/
I have strength for it.

You may not think you/
recall Scout lessons, but your/
sharpened hatchet does.
