The Justin Haikus, Volume 1

The Silver Snail rocks!
Co-workers rock, discounts rock:
but boyfriends rock too…
——————–
The forbidden fruit
Hangs too close. My Manager!
Pluck him from the vine?
——————–
Twenty-two; too young?
Age never stopped me before
But would it stop him?
——————–
You could own nothing
I would still like your glasses
And blonde stubbly chin.
——————–
Justin van Leeuwen
You are so cute. Can I be
Moira van Leeuwen?

  1. 3 1/2 years is too big a gap?

    I dunno, I think most guys are comfortable in a 22-27 range and occasionally a “whole 20’s” kind of deal.

    Still, individual reactions may vary.

  2. Because you are addicted to haikuahol.

    So says I.

    Also? Congrats on your winnery (and your double runner-uppery) at tmb.net!

  3. I see genius,
    Manifested in haiku,
    To work or to love?
    ——————-
    To pluck managers
    Risks the working paradise
    Comics all around
    ——————-
    Maybe life’s too short
    To worry about working
    You could be plucking

  4. Philip flatters me
    So I buy him guitar picks
    It is a good trade
    ——————-
    To work or to love –
    Damn Puritan work ethic
    Gets me every time
    ——————-
    Though I love to… pluck
    Caellum’s lecture gives me pause
    STDs? No thanks

  5. ——————-
    Chrissy, you are right:
    I’m drunk! The Betty Ford of
    Single-malt haiku

  6. ——————-
    Dearest She-Hawken,
    You’re preaching to the choir!
    Young? Old? I care not.

  7. —————–
    Lost Voice must not die!
    Haiku homicide ain’t right –
    Think of the tombstone.

  8. Most guitar picks are,
    Surely as good as love is
    Gratitude abounds
    —————-
    You? Puritanical?
    I must have met another
    You seemed not so chaste
    —————-
    Chrissy has stated
    “You just called my friend a tramp!”
    Did I speak in haste?
    —————-
    Not a tramp, dear me
    I just meant you seemed not shy
    Justin’s a nice guy?
    —————-
    Caellum sure is wise
    He says to pluck is just fine
    But wear PVC
    —————-
    Condoms will suffice
    PVC is overkill
    Dismiss his advice
    —————-
    Pluck on, Macduff, and
    Let the weakest be the first
    to cry hold enough
    —————-
    Shakespeare never wrote
    Verse in haiku form like that
    It’s probably best
    —————-
    I guess I suggest
    Pluck the tiny little boy
    I find love is rare
