These Eeyorian
thistles* are so pretty I’ll/
gladly not eat them.

Lunchtime with Eeyore./
These thistles are so pretty.
I’ll look and not lunch.

A Foul Meal? Revolutionary ConTEXTing Haiku

Barbeque wings. Egg /
drop soup. Egg salad sandwich./
Too fowl of a meal?

During harvest time/
he wondered how his cheese would/
taste with her peaches.

My closet’s full of/
clothes. I’ll fall for that she who/
won’t try to change me.

My wardrobe is filled/
with clothes from women who sought/
to dress me better.

OR
to improve my look.

OR
to improve me. Why?

There was a moment/
when I was supposed to wait./
I didn’t, okay?

As I gazed at her/
new hairstyle, tan, smile, style, look, /
my heart lept with joy!

If I throw my gum/
out on the freeway, does that/
help with paving costs?

It’s sad when you know/
this is finito and she/
talks with some new guy.

Everyone has the/
soul of a poet. Just look/
for and accept it.
