Satur-ku?


I still write haiku
But never on a Friday
Funny how things change

Wintry weather falls
Dampness creeps into our world
And life is blacker

I am not sure why
But I seem to be straddled
With insomnia

North Korean War
Was unstoppable, they said
Newscasting bollocks

Time is deceptive
October is whizzing by
Quicker than August

Uninterested
Or is the correct usage
Disinterested?

‘The Girl On The Train’
A novel about murder?
Or a travel guide?

In the world of odes
Some haiku is meaningful
But mine is just trite

I will always post
An odd number of haiku
It’s just a habit
