It's really crunchy
and dry, full of husks and air
popcorn burrito

in my clumsy haste
i forgot to take credit
for the previous

hiatus of verse
my skills have lain languishing
till the siren's call

I have addictions
wrapped up in black velvet cloth
locked behind a door

it came back to me
something bad that had gone down
sort of like vomit

as i got older
people said i should grow up
but i haven't yet

after far too long
turn the medium to heat
let there be haiku

Sneaky cat was stunned
up on the counter top by
red demon curry

Off to jog away
a ring of floatation gel
that could lift a saab

Okay, yes it's brown
and yes it's covered with mold
but it loves me so

Summer roses bloom
holding their velvet petals
high into the breeze

These wheels have rusted,
wet belts are now squeaking, but
I'm ready to roll

Cresting tsunami
Composed of naught but whiskey
Tumbling back to soil

Thank you, Dear Janis
I shall return in due time
I adore your page

The archived poems
They all still exist but the
Search page is broken.

What in Hell happened
To the index of poems?
Feeling nostalgic.

The trouble with things
The real trouble with things
Oh just nevermind

Appropriatness
The relaunch of Bad Haiku
Five / Seven / O Five

so ash...how are you?
can you let me know via
this wonderful site?

So anyway, I
guess haiku lives once again
without william.....

poor william...fingers must be
itching right now for posting his stupidity

i must confess, i am William
Nippress as well. I am sorry I have
lied to you all and tried to fool you.
So, cant we just all be friends?

Looks like William Nippress hasn't
brushed his teeth in years and
he also needs to bathe now and
then so he doesn't stink up the
haiku room....

Looks like William Nippress is the
same person hacking the name of
all kinds of people in here and
trying to make them look bad....
what a shame...you must be from
europe or something....

Looks like William Nippress should
go back to where he came from
and leave us respectable haiku
authors alone....

Looks like William Nippress has
been shagged like a cockroach...

Looks like you were humiliated

Snow finds blue full spring.
Summer flusters huge arrows.
Spring clashes a hand.

Helping me

seventeen is the number

Wind blows words away
Thanks you guys that was such fun
Unheard I retire

I refuse to accept
Limits placed on me by others
Who

I understand myself
I just don

the truest understanding of reality
comes from undrstanding ones self
And how you relate to the world

Sorry for the delays
Phone line keeps dropping cutsoff May be all this rain

Never settle back
Why? Because where is the limit?
Must find out myself

........immortality comes
to those who are strong enough
..........to believe in it

Can

........being a mortal
is no reason to lose hope
.....and lack joy in life

I don

.....ah a classic angst*
but why not instead be just
...content with this life**
.
.
.........(* - maybe)
.
.
(** - embracing what life has
to offer and doing our best to
..make life rewarding to the
..to the best of our abilities)

Gift given to some!
Ability to convey
True essence of meaning

Will' will expanding, contracting
Dedicated to understanding through communication of ideas
The same problem again, reflections of self

.......you aint retired yet
but how come you do have time
.........to travel and fly
