"Fallen sick on a journey,


In dreams I run wildly
Over a withered moor."

-- Matsuo Basho


What else can slip past
An addled old man who dreams
He vanquished Charlie?

Four more McCain haikus (with sincerest apologies to Basho):

A smirking dolt
More white
Than a Xerox of Cheney's butt

Even an old bore
Who hasn't a clue
Gets pundit love.

What luck!
The Village folk find
My taint fragrant.

From all directions
PACs shovel bundles of cash
Into the slush fund.

Off topic: When the time is 6:15 in Chicagoland, or the Arkanshire, this evening of August 5, it will be exactly 63 years ago that the fission bomb was dropped on Hiroshima.

As a wise man once said, "War is Hell."

Um, a haiku featuring Dick Cheney's butt? The dissonance of that could spin the planet right off its' axis, man. Be careful with that stuff...

driftglass appears,
through wind-parted clouds
dropping poetry bombs,
on McCain's reality

Hmmm...Let me try my hand:

Democrats dither
while the press continues to fellate
worthless fat old fool
"maverick"

Fight the doubt inside
Smear the enemy outside
Gone wild killing truth

former maverick
old incompetent bastard

McCain and Bush kneel low.
Dick smiles
sees all
says "no war after the fall."
