Boy and girl, inert,/
at the bar. Both are wearing/
black and white striped shirts.

Post Late-Night Haiku Learning: Romantic Email Sonnet
I sent you
a late-night haiku,
and, this morning,
what did you do?
Walked to your desk.
That’s really best:
Stay calm and inert.
Don’t try to flirt.
When starting out,
leave room for doubt
instead of imagining
some grand beginning.
Be practical! It’s only then
you’ll avoid disapointment again.
