Early weekend haiku!

by: the_promised_land

Fri Sep 02, 2011 at 02:52:00 PM EDT



It was not such a quiet week in New Jersey, our home state. Irene blew through. Paterson, Wayne, and many other places had serious flooding. And as Labor Day approached, the war over the future of unions in the Garden State raged.

A perfect week for a haiku.You know the rules: 5, 7, 5 again. Take the topic suggestion left you, then set the topic for the next one. I'll start:

Tea Party response to Irene
It's your fault, not mine
Should have bought a second home
Pay your own damn bills

Next topic: There are no jobs - Happy Labor Day!

There are no jobs -- happy labor day! (from gov chris christie): (0.00 / 0)
Get back on the beach!
Every day is labor day
with no laborers.

Next topic:
Paterson and the hurricane


Pat(t)erson's Hurricane (0.00 / 0)
Not just one, but two.
Paterson is drying up.
Patterson on Court.
