Haiku Friday-- the 80's
I'm not sure why, but I'm going through kind of an MC Hammer obsession at the moment. But who hasn't? If you see me in a pair of Hammer pants next week, don't be surprised.
This week's haiku will use the last line "It was the Eighties." Just patch together a first line of five syllables and a second line of seven syllables, and you have a haiku!
Here is mine:
In the Reagan days
Every time was Hammer Time!
It was the Eighties.
Now it is your turn...

I sang and I danced
To Van Halem, George Michael.
It was the Eighties.
With my friend Shelly
I smoked potpourri - bad call!
It was the Eighties.
Lived at the Island
Sipped Champange, watched the river
It was the Eighties.

Technically, though, MC Hammer achieved popularity in the very early 1990s (maybe late, late '89) during the Bush years.
Finished college, went
To work, moved three times,
Met right guy, married
(not the same one), had
Four jobs, became an adult;
It was the Eighties.

"Loser" no longer
Made lifelong friends in college
It was the Eighties
Capitol Hill Jobs
No clue about life or girls
It was the Eighties
Then, Isolation,
law school, romance disaster
It was the Eighties
One constant: Music
Still listen to those tunes
