The Rude Pundit is burning off the last of 2014 with these remaining haiku from the over 100 he was sent by readers with ambitions for poetry greatness (or with a couple of spare minutes while taking a shit with their smartphones):
From runfastandwin at Hollywood Park (is that a horse-racing tip disguised as a name?):
Boss Cheney and George
love some wicked torture while
yanking each other.
From Benn in Vancouver (is the extra "n" a Canadian spelling?):
The last thing we hear
As we enter the abyss:
Eric Garner's breath
From Jeff in Alameda:
European probe
By landing on a comet
Brightened up my year
From Thomas in Wichita:
Kansas queers can wed
Brownback and pals flip their shit
Equality wins.
From Jack in Central Illinois:
Prevent birth control,
And pay your peeps shit wages.
Nice, Hobby Lobby.
From N in Texas:
From today’s headlines:
Toddler shoots mom in Walmart.
They grow up so fast.
From Sheila in Manassas (Heh. Man Ass.):
McDonnell likes bribes
But not women's equal rights.
Strange Christian logic.
From Linda in Chicago:
Benghazi,oh god,
Benghazi,Benghazi,oohhh...
Benghazigasm!
And we're done. Farewell, 2014. Don't let the cops shoot you on the way out. Monday - a return to regular rudeness.
