Haiku as Therapy

February 6th, 2009 at 9:57 am by Cranky

I must say, there is a certain frustrating helplessness watching this financial crisis/political circus go down.

The collusion of the corrupt and the clueless is bad enough. But the audacity is overwhelming and I ain’t talking about hope. This decade should be known as the “audacious” one.

Audacity to;

  • Create a financial crisis and expect welfare checks in the billions.
  • Give billions to those responsible for the crisis with a “don’t spend this on anything stupid” nudge, nudge, wink, wink.
  • Skip out on taxes while building an entire political philosophy on a Coke commercial communalism.
  • Pay lip service to ethics while opening up the pork gates to everyone ever owed a favor.

Really, what is the common shmoe supposed to do? I know! Haiku!

And Rightly So is opening the blog up to Stimulus Bill Haikus.

Here’s mine.

Can you spare a Bil?
This jet will not fuel itself
Say, is this tax free?

Yours?

    Do I have the talent to compose a haiku?
    I think the answer is clear.
    Why do you even have to ask?

    My heart beats
    With white hot hate
    For anything Obama.
