Haiku Tuesday

[thermalsatsuma]

Dreams of the Archers
Mixed up with Deliverance
And Brisingamen

Cat waits patiently
For six o'clock alarm call
Then meows for food

Eyes gummed shut with sleep
A trapped eyelash is one cause
A stye the other

Slow traffic on road
One hundred miles per gallon
Is my average

Services car park
Remote fob won't open car
Turns out to be twin

Lunchtime Tesco trip
Requests to buy Cup-a-Soup
And some Pepsi Max

On reaching checkout
Ominous Pepsi bubbles
Send for replacement

User group meets today
Leftovers from buffet lunch
Nom nom nom nom nom

To do list progress
One thing added for each ticked
Equilibrium

Thanks Rachel!

this one is unashamedly plagiarised ....

The food in my bowl
Is old, and more to the point
Contains no tuna.

Tiny can, dumped in
Plastic bowl. Presentation,
One star; service, none.

My brain: walnut sized.
Yours: largest among primates.
Yet, who leaves for work?

So you want to play.
Will I claw at dancing string?
Your ankle's closer.

Am I in your way?
You seem to have this backwards.
This pillow's taken.

There's no dignity
In being sick--which is why
I don't tell you where.

Seeking solitude
I am locked in the closet.
For once I need you.

Your mouth is moving,
Up and down, emitting noise.
I've lost interest.

The dog wags his tail,
Seeking approval. See mine?
Different message.

Cats can't steal the breath
Of children. But if my tail's
Pulled again, I'll learn.

Most problems can be
Ignored. The more difficult
Ones can be slept through.

My affection is conditional.
Don't stand up,
It's your lap I love.

I don't mind being
Teased, any more than you mind
A skin graft or two.

So you call this thing
Your "cat carrier." I call
These my "blades of death."

Toy mice, dancing yarn,
Meowing sounds. I'm convinced
You're an idiot.
