How do you Haiku?

Share a haiku about your day!

A moment of peace,

That's all that I'm asking for,

Please go to bed now.

Stressed out about work, but at least today I had breakfast for dinner

There's something really relaxing about this one. I love it.

Two trips to the store—
Because I forgot TP—
Under a warm sun.

Car brought to the shop,

dented, scratched, needing repair.

Aren't we all, sometimes?

I wrote a haiku
In the dada style, but it's
A little creepy

...

This is a true story. I compose dadaist poetry (I use a method similar to Burroughs' cut-up method, so phrases rather than single words, usually) and sometimes I do haikus. I composed a random haiku for this prompt but it came out much darker than I anticipated, so I wrote the above one the old fashioned way, and I'll share that instead.

I'm not familiar with dadaist writing. I can't speak for others but I'd like to hear your haiku.

Aren't the birds lovely,

Atop the sycamore tree

Singing their hearts out?

Work going so slow,

Who knows how long it will last,

Weekend here I come.

Take my kids to school,

Make food in a factory

Pizzas and pasta.

Chickadees dee-dee

Engines demand attention

Today I am quiet

My fingerprints lost

In the dishwashers water

My phone stays locked.

I laughed out loud at this one. Nice.
