For the month of February, I have challenged myself to do all my Facebook statuses as haikus. Actually, I posted a poll, and haiku was the clear winner. While this is great for me creatively in general, my rhyming stuff has been suffering.
Goal tomorrow: a rhyming poem about something silly.
Confession: my favourite style of poetry to write is free verse, which I have not done in years. My free verse ones tend to be depressing, and I have not been able to pull off teenage angst for about 20 years now. Mid-30's angst just isn't as acceptable.
Here's two terrible haikus that did not make the status cut, because they are awful:
Know what makes me mad?
Seeing drivers yapping on
Their stupid cell phones.

A little weird to have one
