Haiku Train

[twoleftfeet]

Super springy things
make a feline bee-line for
the shady tree-line

[Jester]

the shady tree-line
wound in its shadow at noon -
cats left high and dry

[twoleftfeet]

Cats left high and dry
awaited Mad English Dogs
with trepidation

[Jester]

with trepidation
they heard the old violin
and tightened their guts

[twoleftfeet]

And tightened their guts
with clothes line pegs - the fiddle
caterwauled away

[pseud]

caterwauled away
on thin ice of a new day
all hail Aqualung!

[twoleftfeet]

All hail Aqualung
and Jethro Tull, sowing seeds
in the field of rock

[Jester]

in the field of rock,
rolling stock for a living
in the past again

[pseud]

in the past again
Einstein's theories all come true
at light speed, at once

[that girl]

At light speed, at once
my foot swings up, kicks my face.
My heart is wasted.

[dillingworth]

wasted too attempts
to buy shoes wide enough or
find a smaller mouth.

[barrie]

My heart is wasted -
But my liver and kidneys
were quickly devoured.

[twoleftfeet]

Were quickly devoured?
The old buzzard wolfed them down -
He's an offal pig

[barrie]

He's Annoff Al-Pig,
he sounds Arabic to me.
Guess he's no Muslim.

[Jester]

guess he's no muslim -
he's a ham actor with a
skin like bacon rind.

[barrie]

skin like bacon rind,
teeth like sheep, a cosmetic
surgeon'll fleece you.

[Jester]

surgeon'll fleece you
you fat, ugly beast you - get
on that stainless steel.

[barrie]

on that stainless steel
lies unimaginable
ugliness engrained.

[Jester]

ugliness engrained
his face, gnarled by gnomes to grace
never never land

[barrie]

"Never never land",
said Jackson, when asked where he
found reality.

[Jester]

found reality,
lost his perception of truth,
too much Jesus-juice.

[barrie]

Too much Jesus juice -
Is this wine, water or blood?
Sacramental stuff.

[Jester]

Sacramental stuff,
mental being the oper-
ative syllables

[juliadebeauvoir]

Ative syllables!
that's cruel to end haiku,
Such shame, shame on you!

[barrie]

such shame, shame on you
the voices said to Prescott -
water and ducks' backs.
