Haiku 2

Sunday, March 25th, 2007

Damned, damned lawn mower
On you I spent afternoon
Spark plug, air filter

Murray support sucks
But, like VA’s, it was free
So I dug and dug

Eventually
I found the damn manual
On the internet

Bought the crap I need
With Pigpen at Home Depot
Ogled new mowers

But I was loyal
To that thrice damned lawn mower
Changed everything out

Once done, it started
Promptly on the 13th pull
Erupted black smoke

Ran fine, standing still
But when I pushed it, it stalled
Got half the lawn done

It took stops and starts
And now my arm kinda hurts
And my foot hurts too

I think its done now
Might just set it on fire
I kicked it real hard.

Worst haiku

Nothing to see here
This area off limits
Move along, people
