Ahhh, the haiku. Few poetic styles evoke such stirrings of the soul.
Someone sent me these lovely and heart-touching red neck and trailer park haikus. I’m happy to give proper credit to the talented poet or poets who so beautifully capture the heart of the trailer park.
But for now, the creator's must remain a mystery. And as these poems show, the haiku is a poem which evokes the Mystery of Life.
Enjoy, and let your heart be touched!
BLAZE
Distant siren screams
Dumb-ass Verne's been playing with
Gasoline again.
A NEW MOON
Flashlights pierce darkness
No nightcrawlers to be found
Guess we'll gig some frogs.
EXUBERANCE
Joyous, playful, bright
Trailer park girl rolls in puddle
Of old motor oil.
ALONE
Seeking solitude
Carl's ex-wife Tammy files for
Restraining order.
HATRED
I curse the rainbow
Emblazoned upon his hood
God damn Jeff Gordon.
