In February, I give out Haiku Valentines on those little elementary school cards
at the monthly reading I host at Glendale Community College.
Stuff like this:
I love you the most
when you're missing me. Let's drift
apart together.
Cold feet dance away.
Hit club. Occurrence at Owl
Creek Chapel. She does.
I hate when sexist
frat douchebags objectify
babes like that one bitch
Be mine to share

Only one winner
of her affection. Rock, Paper,
Narciscissors.
Titanic smile. Your
kiss is the iceberg I can't
circumnavigate.
This month we had a great turnout for Valentine's Eve and Jennifer Spiegel
signed and read from her new novel Love Slave (Unbridled Books)
and her short story collection The Freak Chronicles (Dzanc Books)..
I LOVE these haiku, Shawnte -- and delivered on old-school valentine cards is just perfect. so simple, so fun, so brilliant!
ReplyDeleteIt was so difficult to find little kiddie cards that had room to write on. I guess kids aren't expected to have anything to say.
