Friday Haiku

by: the_promised_land

Fri Jul 29, 2011 at 03:14:00 PM EDT



It's that time of week again, even if Congress is going to be "working" all weekend.

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:

Debt ceiling

A made-up crisis
America held hostage
Middle class gets screwed

Next topic: Christie to Iowa

Corn and Fear (4.00 / 1)
In the land of corn
Where the GOPers like to scheme
Fear the Christie Dream

Next Topic: Tea Party Extortion of the economy

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



Extortion (0.00 / 0)
Tea Party Express
Conspiracy of dunces
Economy razed

Please Senator Reid

I'm with Harry on this one (0.00 / 0)
Raising debt limit last thing we should do, will weaken country, hurt economy ://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELkbDdPeL7I&feature=player_embedded

That's not a haiku (0.00 / 0)
I know you republicans have a hard with facts, but a haiku has a 5/7/5 pattern.

[ Parent ]
Debt ceiling (0.00 / 0)
Republicans cut
Education math skills die
Numbers not their thing

Next topic - where are the jobs?

One Vote.  Yours.  It really does matter.
