It's Late And I Want To Go Home
Still at work. Tired. Grumpy. Headache growing in magnitude. Very weary. Impatient. Shoulder blades ache.
I wish it could be
time to go home already.
Damn, it's getting late.
Why did I decide
to do yoga this morning?
Now my body hurts.
How I pass the time:
writing really bad haiku
and watching the clock.
Does haiku have to
be about nature to be
real haiku? Nah, dude.
I'm sure I offend
haiku purists who must see
what I do as wrong.
I can count to five,
then I can count to seven,
and then five again.
What would you do if
you could become anyone
in the universe?
I think I would be
independently wealthy
and write all day long.
I could keep this up
all night if necessary.
Just want to go home.
I am actually
waiting for this thing at work.
When it's done, I'll go.
Why, computer, why?!
I was almost out of here,
then you had to crash!!!
Now Computer makes
aggrivating whirs and beeps.
It's driving me mad.
So it happened twice.
I think I found a bad read.
I got you, sucka!
Okay, time to go.
I will have to spare you from
more "brilliant" haiku.

This haiku was great.
I'm glad you left soon after,
before going mad.

Ha! You make me laugh.
It's one way to pass the time:
I'd rather be home.

"I can count to five,

If one were to ask,
I'd say this haiky is best,
Because it is true.

Went to some of the other poetry blog sites. Some good stuff. Also, some not so good stuff, but I guess that makes the good stuff easier to see.
