Crazikus #6

I'm hugging Hobos
Just to tell them they are great
at wearing feet bags


Something wasn't right
I had a bean in my sock
Placed by my daughter


Popping a biscuit
She laughs uncontrollably
Daddy's nose crinkles

Crazikus #5

Icy lemonade
Melting in my mouth tonight
I am in heaven


Riding Hobo Trains
Teaches me great life lessons
...don't be a hobo


Giant Elephant
Is wearing no pants today
very unaware

Crazikus #4

Pack up your bag well
If murder is your forte
Leave no evidence


Cranky Bee Keepers
Just need a little honey
To sweeten their lives


The words to live by
If at first you don't succeed
Try some Heroin

Crazikus #3

Moles with squinty eyes
need to see an eye doctor
and get sexy shades


Burrowing deeply
Lonely ticks seek out a home
To hold their sad tears


Fighting is awesome
Just ask the bleeding inmates
In cell block fourteen

Crazikus

With old fleeting thoughts
Beaver builds his dam again
To watch it crumble

Aliens cry hard
Sad about their giant heads
and no genitals

Drop a healthy bomb
Burritos make great ammo
Take THAT...toilet King!

Craziku (AKA Crazy Haikus)

So, I love writing insane haikus. It's kind of like "my thing" that I do.

5 Syllables
7 Syllables
5 Syllables

That's the format I follow. So, Patrizzia has encouraged me to write some crazy ones, and I guess this is the best place for me to jot them down. Maybe I'll do a few a day and see what happens.

It's whatever pops off my head. I don't dwell on the ideas too much or too often. Quick and easy. Down and Dirty.

So, here goes:


Blood on the ceiling
Splattered from a single head
Mustard...Candlestick


We share common thoughts
Each finishing sentences
Rock, paper, scissors


Driving through meadows
Little People on the hood
Over the Rainbow

Family Time

I just finished 12 straight days of vacation, and they were spent staying home with Patrizzia and Miabella. Even though we each took turns being ill from nasty colds, it was still a wonderful time home.

Playing board games, playing with Miabella and her new toys from Santa, staying up way to late to watch Dexter (and other shows), relaxing in our basement, listening to music and dancing, waking up to calls of "Daddy, Mommy, hello....where are you guys," seeing Bolt with Miabella for her first movie, eating tons of junk food and just going about each day with no major rush or plans was fabulous.

I hate to get back to the grind today, but that's OK. It could be much worse. I just cherish those moments with my family, and I just wait for the end of each day to get back to them....and anxiously await the weekend to spend every moment with them.

I don't need much in life.

I only need them.
