21 Haikus
 
  He stayed inside her
until the borders opened
beloved Poland.

She shaved the hair off
but hubby was a drunkard
hair of the dog, then.

The snow of dandruff
had settled on his shoulders
he did not ski there.

Arctic explorer
in need of operation
could get no doctor.

She was a stripper
and did the wiggle nicely
there was an echo.

Airplane with pilot
may get you back quite safely
if he stays sober.

Old Doctor Ziddle
was looking for dilation
she had to piddle.

The moon is lonely
and really jealous of her
she is much brighter.

The Devil whistled
when he saw Brigitte Bardot
and tried to bribe her.

In Argentina
they do the wildest dances
but not the Polka.

The Pope is German
he drove an old Volkswagen
God kept it running.

Speedy Gonzales
must have been a Latino
illegal alien?

Hilary Clinton
can taste the presidency
she's not my taste though.

And Donald Rumsfeld
was into drugs, yes, truly
but did they help him?

In Arizona
the sun fools many people
to think they're poets.

My book is ready
the Library of Congress
has shown some int'rest.

The one who scooted
he was a sordid liar
he lives in cesspool.

The Eiffel Tower
is an attempt by Frenchmen
to reach the Heavens.

And Gerhard Schroeder
a German and a Peacock
dumped his first woman.

Enciting laughter
is something I am good at
Felix the Clown says.

All these are Haikus
they make you breathe much better
but you must read them.

These two gave me the best laugh.

The Pope is German
he drove an old Volkswagen
God kept it running.

Speedy Gonzales
must have been a Latino
illegal alien?

Hilary Clinton has eaten the presidency. Not my choice either.

Hilary Clinton
can taste the presidency
she's not my taste though

Haiku......is something akin to sex without penetration!
