Pale morning sun
Rises softly in the East.
Monday again. F***.

There’s No Haiku Like Home
Beige fields of wheat
As far as the eye can see.
In Kansas again.

Haiku: Do’s and Don’t’s
This is a haiku.
Seven syllables this line.
First and last have five.
This haiku is bad.
Do not write one that’s like this.
That would be a mistake.

Birthdays
Today’s my birthday.
I don’t feel like writing much.
Thus, this haiku post.

Excuse for the 11:57 Poem
Did stand-up tonight
Thus this rushed little haiku.
My apologies.

Google’s Humor
Why are things funny?
That’s a very good question,
And worth googling.
I decided to
Search for “Funny Picture.” Well,
Here’s the first result:
So, by Google’s thoughts
Coffee tables are funny.
Never would have guessed!
Thinking
What makes human beings
Different from those other beasts?
Some think it’s thinking.
This theory assumes
Other creatures cannot think.
While that might be true…
Humans also lack
This innate ability
That lets their brains think.
Here are examples:
People at four-way stop signs,
Rap, taxes, Denny’s.

An Open Letter (in Haiku) to Rebecca Black
Dear Rebecca Black,
This note is addressed to you.
Thus the line above.
I would like to say
Your song Friday changed my life.
Let me count the ways:
I never slowed down
To sing about my routine
‘Fore I go to school.
I had never thought
About which seat I should take.
Front or back? Which one?
I also did learn
That people like partying
On the weekends, yeah!
Let us not forget
That Thursday’s what comes before
Friday. What a fact!
Thus this letter ends.
With my profound gratitude,
Signed David Kappele
