A Campaign Day in Haiku

6:00AM

I got out of bed

And did my business so that

The dog could do his.

7:00AM

Eggs on a hard roll

Coffee and a Budweiser

Breakfast for a champ.

8:00AM

Watched the morning news

Wondering what’s happening

I still do not know.

9:00AM

Headed into town

To hand out literature

Of campaign issues

10:00AM

Literature snatched

Because cops hate my permit

The First Amendment

11:00AM

Talked to movie fans

And told them all about the

Cinemafia.

12:00PM

Went to the diner

And discussed my health care plan

“An Apple A Day.”

1:00PM

Went to hardware store

Rebuilding America

One nail at a time.

2:00PM

The Supermarket

Prices are so expensive

Shoplifting’s still free.

3:00PM

Walked the dog again

He did his business outside

Not on the carpet.

4:00PM

On-air interview

Canceled at the last minute.

One less thing to do.

5:00PM

Went to grab a beer

The bottles were all empty

From hearty breakfast.

6:00PM

“Family Guy”‘s on

I can’t watch them Sunday nights

Sunday Night Football.

7:00PM

Time to make dinner

Still have turkey leftover

From Thanksgiving night.

8:00PM

Talking to masses

Can be very difficult

With glitches abound.

9:00PM

Fixing the glitches

But the masses had all left

Will try again soon.

10:00PM

Enough of this day

Tomorrow will be better

Now I’m off to bed.
