Packers Everywhere: Revolutionary ImproVerse Haiku

It’s hard, but I can
accept Packers fans not born

Recognizing Depression: Revolutionary ImproVerse Haiku

I know I’m depressed./
My keyboard’s blank and so is/
my dictionary.

The zucchini was/
not so teeny, but she used/
it up anyway

Please be gentle and/
kind with me this morning. I’m /
in the throes of pain.

I’m tired of trying/
to help people. When I do/
I seem to mess up.

Only a parent/
can know the hurt of failing/
when trying to help.

Only parents get/
the pain of failing when they/
try to help their kids.

There was a smelly/
dead mouse in the house. I said:/
“I’m brave!” Then I puked.

Why do I expect/
others to help? She is my/
girl. I can take charge.

Who can I blame if/
she goes away? Nobody/
but myself, for sure.

Even in defeat,/
there is respect and glory./
The refs blew the call.

OR
there is greatness and glory./
OR
there is respect and greatness.
