Haiku for the Rapture-Punked

by: Rosi Efthim

Fri May 20, 2011 at 01:27:21 PM EDT

Hey - For you Saturday late-nighters, what do you have to say for yourselves now that you've been Rapture-punked? Scroll down into comments for the post-Rapture stuff.

Tomorrow at 6:00 pm (7:00 pm Central) the world comes to an end. So sayeth Christian radio, and those folks are never wrong, are they? Floods. Frogs. Finicky nuclear power plants. Democrats masquerading as Republicans. Snarling governors. Donald Trump's hairline. What will it be that actually puts an end to New Jersey?

Haiku it. Rapture-theme it.

You know the rules. 5 syllables, then 7, and 5 again. Write your haiku on the topic provided, then you suggest the topic for the next poet. I'll start you off:

Rapture for Lefties

Boom Boom Boom it goes
Progressives lifted up then?
Christie fans stay here

Next topic: How does it end?

Suggest the topic for the next poet?

It's not a particularly snappy signature, but here's what I think we need in the next NJ Democratic State Chair.

Sweeney Raptures New Jersey (4.00 / 2)

It's likely Sweeney
sold his soul to the Norcross
and New Jersey falls

If we don't stand together, we fall alone
That didn't last long.
