Haiku Friday in the Borderlands


Dusk is spectacular in West Texas-- just an explosion of light. I'm staying at the Camino Real, which is kind of an odd place. The room is huge, but almost devoid of furniture. There is a huge window with a weathered wooden frame, though, that looks out over the city and Mexico beyond.

A fine place from which to haiku. Here are this week's topics:

1) Cooties
2) Writing Syllabi
3) Clowns
4) Big Trial
5) The Spanish Medievalist's election-year highjinks
6) The perfect margarita
7) Project Runway
8) The Book of Galatians
9) Farming accidents
10) The intriguing footnote one in United States v. Williams, 2008 WL 80206 (4th Cir. Jan. 7, 2008).

Here is mine:

Please vote off Sweet P,
She is scarier than a mime
And poorly dressed.

Now it is your turn! 5 syllables/7 syllables/5 syllables...

Comments:
Waffles at nighttime
Iplawwife wakes and eats
Perfect pregnant food
 
I had boy and girl
She had boy. Over a year
yet our cats still fight

Miss A runs for months
Poops on floor when living here
Tango pees on shoes
 
Get rid of fat Chris!
His shirts are like party tents
And he smells funny.
 
Amtrak, run by clowns
Arrives a whole DAY late
But... good Amburgers!
 
Puff'lump President?
What a fabulous idea!
Vote for me or else!
 
Kit Pistol was robbed!
"Auf" that cry-baby Ricky
I'm sick of his hat.

I adore tartan:
I need that last look from team
Victorya/Jillian!*

*Needs a southern drawl,
But in the words of Tim Gunn,
Gotta "make it work!"
 
scroll to galatia
in a nutshell, Paul says to
keep eyes on the prize
 
Listing Assignments
A Road Map for the Readings
Constructs of Learning
 
Syllabi photos
What is that all about, I?I kind of like it.
 
My syllabi are
Always incomplete and late,
Students sob and weap.
 
Me and Gordan L,
Are working for Obama,
Hillary is toast.
 
Um, "Hillary Toast?"
Worst breakfast ever, SP!
Would rather have Bush.
 
Footnote sylibi
Galatian margarita
Runway cootie clown
 
Wrongful death action?
suing as surviving spouse?
Can't be transgender.

See Littleton v. Prange, 9 S.W.3d 223 (Tex. App.--San Antonio, 1999).
 
Whoa, I am so out of my league with these topics . . . I have no idea what most of y'all are talking about, including Osler.

Swiss laundry police:
Downstairs neighbor rants at me--
I left soap in sink.
 
Tim Gunn, David Guinn...
Separated at birth? Or...
Maybe it's the clothes.
 
The perfect rita?
Lime, Salt and lots of Patron
and shared with close friends
 
Noone's expecting
The Spanish Midievalist!
Fetch the soft cushions!
 
His main weapon, Fear!
fear and intimidation!
three, fanatical .....
 
And also, Salsa!
The Medievalist's salsa
Makes a grown man cry.
 
I miss Big Trial
Loved the action, the court room
PCers hate me
 
No haiku from me.
Just the delight of learning
Osler loves Bravo.
 
It's not Bravo love,
It is Sweet P repulsion!
Auf Weidersein, P!
 
I read Galations
With suspicion now, Paul has
An agenda? So sad!
 
OSLER IS A FAN
of PROJECT RUNWAY!!!! Who Knew??
Sweet P is so weird.

I love Chris, Christian.
Do not like Victoria
Control freak for sure.

The Chris/Christian Team
won this week! Loved their kooky
dress. That queen can SEW!!!!

Which begs the question:
Are there degrees of Gayness?
Gunn, Kors, Chris... SOOOOO Gay.

Not that there's any
thing wrong with that. Just seems some
MORE GAY than just gay.

"Real" Housewives Scary
How Real can they be? Not real.
They BOTOX it up.

Well I cannot spend
all day haikuing. ALone
with sick dog, kid. HEEEELLLLP.
