Second life

In another world
I am prettier, skinny,
naturally blonde.

Panera’s

Cup of coffee gets
you free wireless. Suburban
pretty people lunch.

He said, she said

Is America
ready for its first female
president? Ask Bill.

Bait and switch

Time for another
Ron Paul mention so I can
get my page views up.

Puppy love

She said her dog’s paws
smelled like Doritos. “She’s nuts”
I thought. Then I sniffed.

Unspoken

Secrets like splinters
lodged down deep tear you apart
from the inside out.

Jump the shark

My life is content
driven, looking for the next
big thing to embrace.

Entourage

S will travel with
me, security-blanket
friend I’m blessed to have.

Same old lament

National TV
talk show called me to be a
guest. What will I wear?

Tasteless

Reading haikus is
like eating chestnuts. You stop
after a bad one.
