Dance Like Everyone’s Watching: Revolutionary IMprov Haiku

I sing and dance like/
folks are watching ‘cuz it lets/
them sing and dance, too.
— A haiku from the I-15 topless dancer.

Believe Her: Romantic IMprov Haiku

“I am not really/
interested in dating”./
So I believed her.

When you’re on Facebook,/
you can get compliments from/
beauties you don’t know.

I should probably/
say something on beauty, but/
that’s superfluous.

A man must be her/
fan, if only to have dreams/
to still believe in.

Dolls I’ve known have had/
no mind, will, or power of/
their own. Sad objects.

I also weep, bow,/
and write “Organ Donor” on/
my driver’s license.

When a dream girl from/
your past once more reappears/
how should you respond?

Why are you sorry/
for what your heart wants? You can’t/
change that I’m not that.

Vile temptress, she!/
Posting food porn photos of/
desserts I’ll ne’er taste!
