Would you like new shoes?
Only if you sleep with me
Older white woman

Haiku and Nature
Haikus have to speak of nature with the use of kigo (japanese for nature word). If they don't, then what are these poems I am writing called. Senryu? Any ideas?

Another One Bites the Dust
from CNN.com, Man dies after police jolt him with stun gun
What’s the difference
Between lasers and tasers?
Much less laser deaths
Sharks with taser guns?
Would electrocute themselves
They are in water
Pull out the Taser
Another man bites the dust
Don’t blame the discharge
The Taser people
spend more money on PR
or on user safety?

Are These Posts Haikus or Senryus?
Since I am not speaking exclusively of nature or humanity, these posts can be anything you want them to be. However, most of the poems I have posted so far imply ironic and satirical situations, making them more like senryus than haikus. I think I also focus more on the "ahhhh" moment than the topic itself.

Judith Reagan shoots a $100 million lawsuit against the NewsCorp empire? Initiating PR machine for major catfighting.

Judith Reagan bites
The hand that fed her amply
Will she lose some teeth?

Hanging in the tiger’s mouth?
Prepare to get gnawed

Comcastic
So they say Comcast is curbing the bandwidth of certain applications and/or users on its High Speed Internet service while maintaining the words "unlimited" in their ads . Of course, this isn't the first time it hits the news.

Priest arrested on charges of stalking Conan O'Brien
Superbly awkward.

Speaking of stalkers,
Was Conan an altar boy?
He seems sorely missed
If God was your fan,
Or at least his lackey is
How hard would you laugh?
“Most dangerous fan?”
Rubberneckingly funny
