My response to Fandango’s weekly invitation to post a flashback to work published on or about this date sometime in the past is the following collection, originally published (online) at High Coupe in June of 2014 and subsequently anthologized (print) at Storm Cycle (Kind Of A Hurricane Press) in August 2015:
Haiku Stupid
1.
sixteen chickens cross
I curse the road for its width
stupid slowpoke birds
2.
they roll themselves down
stupid Pakistani socks
blame it on wal-mart
3.
stupid galaxy
we have nowhere else to go
stay home in the pits
4.
deadly golden arch
America malnourished
stupid plastic food
5.
turn the damned thing off
stupid reality shows
big ol’ bunch of dopes

Nothing stupid about that collection!
Stupid is as stupid does, right?
Dopes and slowpokes. I especially like #3.
