were all the rage in the mid
seventeen forties.

Life's Hard

Grappling with the
large decisions, Benny chose
chocolate ice cream.

Exclamation!

Period. Comma,
(parenthesis) "quotation"
and & semicolon;

Weird? No, Superman!

Carrying the load
of bouncy balls, Tim tripped and
they fell down the stairs.

Sound Effects Mandatory

Fwap! Smack! Kapoo! Oh,
the sounds of penguins towel
whipping cannonballs.

My Song

In the circle, the
circle of life... wait, that has
already been done?

Flight of the Queen

Ballistic babies
turn to cannibalism
in desperate times.

Mucho

Really, very much,
many, so many they fell
the roof, a lot, grapes.

We rode the ferris
wheel, but weren't happy when it

mad demons proved harder than
the instructions warned.

saved up his

longer garden hose for himself.

[Ed's Note: This is not a haiku. It is a type of poetry sort of like a haiku called a fib. Fibs are based on the Fibonacci Sequence where the syllables in each line are 1/1/2/3/5/8.]

[Ed's Note 2: Yes, Benny's nickname is "Hot dog Benny".]

almost overtook speeding
crescents, but kaboom!

An Epic Spill

The silverware drawer
crashed "bang!" to the floor
creating a huge-big mess.
The elves gave a roar,
the dwarves could but snore
for they could not handle the stress.
Then in through the door
came not three but four
of the monsters from great Loch Ness.
All then started the chore
but miss apple core
for she was mending her dress.

[Ed's note: This, most obviously, is not a haiku. It falls in the section of Haiku Haters, where such other poetries go.]

done is quickly replaced by
studying for more.
