Sometimes- oftentimes- I want nothing more than to be left alone. And it is generally at such junctures that, one way or another, the outside world comes calling. I fled New York City for the farthest reaches of Northeast Ohio, hoping to escape the push/pull pressures of friends, family, work, and women, but quickly found they'd followed me. Or, more accurately, I'd brought them all along. A man's home is his castle, but the only sanctuary is his head. We must work to keep both tidy.
This week's haiku go out to those who've truly left the crowd behind.
kn0thing starts us off with a true antisocial classic...
landlord for satan
classic traps never get old
giant feet crush guests
oh jack do come in
can i take your coat for you
watch that first step there
zoning committee
does not approve of gargoyles
your lawn needs mowing
our creepy neighbor
what is he building in there
i think he's jewish
DUNGEON KEEPER
bile demon swarm
devours intrepid hero
home security
gold procurement slows
weary imp slaves need slapping
resource management
small party they said
your parents will never know
i'm done with these guys
UNINVITED
the bar scene is rough
it's hard to meet new people
try eHarmony
my old hippy friends
still don't believe in hygiene
when's your flight again?
NIGHT TRAP
sorority girls
vivacious and beautiful
until open mouth
lisa was pretty
so no one really knew her
exsanguination
bloodsucking gimpface
happy his partner went first
he will not be missed
dana was nimble
escaped vampires and midget
have to do myself
