Several Haikus

Ode to Mike Mignola

(Creator of Hellboy)

Risen from dark flame

To battle the Nazi hoard

Hellboy rules all life

***

Internet Blues

Computer's harsh glow

Contemplating my future

Future glows harshly

***

Drivin' to Florida

Sweating my ass off

Freon makes the car run cool

Zues; send me FREON!

***

Lesson

Little towhead girl

Reaches towards the kitty cat

Slashing claws draw blood

***

Spam for Breakfast

Sliding from it's tin

I masticate my fake meat

Gelatinous ooze

***

Hell in a Hand Basket

Double U must fall

Else all we hold dear is lost

The earth dies screaming

***

Doomed

The end times are nigh

A moron usurps the throne

George Bush chaps my ass

***

Red State Blues

The world is not right

Up is down and black is white

Republicans bite

***

America the Shell-Shocked

Spineless donkeys watch

Elephants rape the eagle

Democracy fails

***

Regeneration

Mother Earth strikes back

Destroying the human plague

Roaches get their shot

***

Crash

Gray clouds fill the sky

Rain dapples the pavement black

Skidding towards a tree
