Haiku Friday: Political Figures!



Oh, man, I am so glad that Christine O'Donnell isn't going away. I just wonder why she isn't running for president? I mean, she has all the elements (as a candidate from either party)-- comes off as crazy, easily offended, and really wants to stay on message.

So, let's haiku about political figures. You can pick anyone you want (including a teenage queen of Naboo). Here is mine:

Christine O'Donnell!
I liked you better when
You were still a witch!

The usual prize applies-- your bio, this space, Monday. 5/7/5. Go!



[UPDATE: OK, fine. You can make your haiku be about cupcakes, too, if you want]

    Vote for the person?
    Only in the primaries
    The choices---akin

    Sadly after that
    We endure party punchlines
    Poor America

    So many "P" picks!
    Palin? Perry? Pawlenty?
    I think I'll just Pass.

    Platitudes and ploys
    Playing games, positioning;
    Phonies, all of them.

    What about Ron Paul?
    A crackpot? Or principled?
    Perhaps he's my "P!"

    Parry is scary,
    Wanted Texas to secede,
    He has pretty hair.

    I too only want
    to talk about what I want;
    I should be President.

    Why do the women
    look as if they were processed?
    Same, same, oh and, same.

    Why do all the men
    look as if they were processed?
    Same, Same, and Ron Paul.

    you, Mommy. It has fish and
    syrup in it." *gag*
