Haiku 207

by Kelly

after the party

one, two, three flies in the house –

I kill to clean up.

This is a fantastic haiku. I can totally feel the scenario and it’s fascinating to have this in haiku form - the necessary killing of the flies!

such a universal haiku…yet a comic subject. very nice!
we all suffer the flies.

- BBQ -

after the cookout,

flies buzz around the trashcan…

glad we stayed outside!

Just wanted to share one by Issa that I just read -

only one guy and
only one fly trying to
make the guest room do

I love it. And will the haiku gods strike down at me if I say I like yours just as much?
