January 10: Southernmost haiku
Kristen Lindquist
At the Key West Literary Seminar this afternoon, former US Poet Laureate Billy Collins addressed this year's theme "Shorts" by reading several haiku. Because it was Billy Collins, they were humorous haiku. My husband Paul and I were thus inspired.
Me:
Free bacon happy hour
with $2 cocktails--
don't hit that rooster!
Paul:
Eating key lime pie
we pass the all-nude strip club--
au revoir, Key West!
