Five, Seven, Five

Know what's really fun?
Adopt a Cockney accent
And say "Paul Weller"

Why are you dancing?
Just stare gravely at the band
Act appropriate

Someone stole my bike
Right in front of my building
But left the basket

It would be cool if
Haruki Murakami
Really talked to cats

While he sleeps, I spy
Ann Coulter on his bookshelf
Slip out quietly

We can only date
If you meet me in Brooklyn
I'm strictly borough

Yes, my hair is streaked
Yes, it sure is "different"
Yes, yes Uncle Mike

I'm a regular
The bartender knows my name
I am lonely inside

Vinyl collection
Original plastic sleeves
Alphabetical

I can't beat to post.
But I can't bear not to post.
Love hurts, message board.


***Some on my favorites from a recent belated birthday gift -- Hipster Haiku by Sioban Adcock.
