So here we are at the penultimate instalment of our 100 Days of Haiku challenge. The 100th day is Tuesday 8 October and I’ll post the final results in the middle of next week. Meanwhile here is this week’s offering.
Felines emitting
zonkons. No wonder I sleep
all the afternoon.
Tuesday 1 October
Autumn eastern sky;
only two stars, just visible.
Too much urban light.
Wednesday 2 October
Life is suffering
but filled with such wonders:
blue sky and lightning.
Thursday 3 October
Sink and ye shall find,
the tap it is a-dripping.
Plumber required.
Friday 4 October
2AM. She sleeps.
I enjoy a quiet wank.
Ah! So much better.
Saturday 5 October
Three eager felines
awaiting their bowls of cod.
No need to wash up.
Sunday 6 October
October tolls the knell
of distant summer days, and
winter soon to come.
