During my time in Pittsburgh last year during my run, I was able to spend time with a man who is working to become the next big thing when it comes to the haiku. Yes, the haiku, a Japanese poem of seventeen syllables, in three lines of five, seven, and five. Today, I woke up to an email in my inbox from JP, with a few haikus to celebrate my 2013 trip. Man, did it make my morning! Too funny. Enjoy.
This year’s haikus:
Fort Dodge-Town
Hey, Senator Dodge –
Veterinary products
Shape your namesake town.
Seductive Sandwich
I’ll grab a meal here!
This place sure looks inviting.
Top Hat’s a great name.
Good Peeps, Great Beer
At the brewery,
I think there’s beard in my beer.
Guess I’m cool with it.
Southern Surprise
Southern omelets
Taste like okra and cornmeal.
Now I have the squirts.
A Good Run
