So I decided to respond to a twitter poetry challenge by Young Chicago Authors (@YoungChiAuthors , http://youngchicagoauthors.org/blog/), to write a haiku about your favorite TV show.  Here’s mine:

march thirty one: national haiku writing month, #12 and #13

Trying to keep up with national haiku writing month, here’s poem #12 and #13

 

#12, college life

 

living on campus

 

should be safe away from guns

 

for some it’s like home

 

 

 

#13, fugitive

 

running from the law

 

drama takes over tv

 

up in flames it’s done

haiku for Music Of The Past (written on April 28, 2012) (this poem was inspired by the fact that for the last few days, old school songs from the 80s, 90s, and most recently the 60s, have been popping in my head very randomly.)

music in my head

Old School was a way of life

where is the talent?
