Sprigs inspires Poetry Thursday

Ah! Love the haiku from www.sprigs.blogspot.com for Poetry Thursday (sorry, to lazy to do the HTML link this second, maybe later).

I was going to post something different, but have to continue in that vein, since she inspired me.

_Art Opening_

Couldn't just meet me
Couldn't be on time for once.
He was drunk, SURPRISE!

Last weekend, I was doing all sorts of haiku, it's gotten in to my blood. I was reciting some pretty lame ones, but they were amusing me. I was visiting my alma mater, so I sent my former college roommate this haiku and then after I sent it, I said it aloud to Walter. It went like this:

_Sunday Postcard_

Writing to you from

Faculty computer lab

Santa Fe Campus

and Walter said "But that doesn't have the turn at the end that haiku is supposed to have."

Huh? Turn at the end? I never thought about that. Damn.

So I changed it to this:

_Sunday Postcard_

Writing to you from
Faculty computer lab
Naked, drunk and wet

Yes, that was poetic license.
