The Dignity Of The Patient Samurai

Silently, he waits.
His opponent bows, prays, turns.
Now, his wait is through.

God Bless You, John Williams (It Was Sadly Only Sixteen Syllables, So I Had To Throw A Rest In There)

Bum, bum bum bum bum,
Bum bum bum. Bum, bum bum bum
Bum, BUM BUM BUM! (Rest).

If You Want To Know What This Haiku Is About, You Just Ask Shelley Murrow What She Thinks About Superheroines

Wonder Woman may
Dress like a two-dollar whore,
But she's pure of heart.

I Know What You're Thinking, And No, I Didn't Dress Up As Biblical Hagrid. I Was Samson For The Church's Bible Walk Tonight For Fall Fest

Never let it be
Said that Josh Wright does not care
About the childrens.

On The Upside, Though, I Won't Have To Spend Money On Lunch Tomorrow, And I Got Rid Of A Meal That Shelley Didn't Want To Eat With Me

Cooking past midnight
Feels weird; especially with
No plans to eat soon.

I Don't Think My Body Has Realized We're Not In College Anymore Yet, Even If My Metabolism Seems To Have Gotten The Message

Work at 8:30;
1:27, and I'm
Still Awake. Stupid.

Regardless Of The Ultimate Fate Of This Here Haiku Blog, We'll Keep Going For At Least Another Week

Another weekend
Flies by, and I have almost
Nothing accomplished.

I'm Still Trying To Decide Whether Or Not I Should Keep The Haiku Blog. But, At Least For Now, Another Samurai Saturday Sees The Sun

War is done: peace reigns.
Tears from the warrior whose
Life has lost purpose.

Two Daily Updating Blogs Is Starting To Take a Toll; Sound Off In The Comments (In The Form Of A Haiku) If You Want To Save Syllabic Restraints' Life

Without outcry from
My readers I fear I might
Stop daily haiku.

And That Fear Usually Stems From An Almost Certain Increase In My Workload. Almost As Certain As Death And Taxes, But Not Quite.

Whenever Ryan
Prints off many things at work
I become afraid.

Hard To Believe It's So Close: Getting Married in 8 Weeks & 2 Days (Side Note: Shelley, The Picture Has Nothing To Do With You; Just Makes Me Laugh)

Invitations for
The wedding went out in
Mail; 58 days.

Thank God Tomorrow Is My Day To Sleep In. I Will Be Dead To The World Before 10am, So Don't Even Try

11 hours
Of sleep? What a fantastic
Idea! Thanks, Nyquil®!

I'm Not Near As Bad As She Is, But Not Exactly Feeling Too Great. I Hope We Feel Better Tomorrow. (Side Note: Picture Of Little Boy In Top Hat=WIN)

I'm sick and tired
Of Shelley and me being
So sick and tired.

First Week: Cliches, Second Week: Philosophers, Third Week: Webcomics, Finishing Strong With Superheroes (That Picture? Nic Cage Was Almost Superman)

Final week of my
Epic Guest Month on Rule Blog;
You should check it out.

The Calm Before The Storm

Silence grips the field.
Warriors come to battle;
Soon, silence is lost.

I Don't Know What You're Talking About. Of Course I Posted This Haiku On 11:59 On Friday Evening. That's What It Says, Isn't It?

Wreaking havoc on
The space-time continuum
To bring you haiku.

I Don't Like To Toot My Own Horn, But *Beep, Beep*

There's a good chance that
I'm the best fiancé to
Walk the earth. Ever.

Sure, It Was Nice, But Was It Everything I Had Hoped It Would Be? Not Really, But, Life Is About Learning To Live With Disappointment.

Slept in this morning
For the first time in three weeks;
Kind of a let-down.

Starting A Three-Page Paper At 12:08 AM? Sounds Like A Fantastic Idea!

Just now starting my
Homework. Oh, wait. I'm really
Blogging. Never mind.

Ode To The Intricate Complexities And Mind-Numbing Capacity Of The Fierce And Bloodthirsty Samurai Warrior... I Mean Mild Insomnia

Why do I not sleep?
Stare at the clock for hours,
Watching life tick by.

And No, I Didn't Spell It Wrong: That's Really The Name of the Show

Chcken fer Dnr
Tonight at Metroplex was
Fun, but crazy.

Samurai Saturdays Will Feature More Traditional Haikus In The Samurai Style, Beginning With This Epic From Boy Meets World, Slightly Modified

Cherry trees blooming.
On the third evening, last
Flower dies and falls.

There's Nothing That A Boy Wants To Hear Less Than That He's Nice

"You're such a nice boy".
Dagger twisted in the heart
Of many young boys.

Shelley, I'm Sorry, But It's True.

Growing up I had
Quite a crush on Topanga
Off of Boy Meets World.

What Are Samurai Saturdays? You'll Have To Wait To Find Out.

New weekly plan:
Samurai Saturdays; look
For it coming soon.

Last Week We Were In First Place And Beat The Team Who Was In Second Place, But The Ranking System Is Almost As Complicated As College Football's

Looking forward to
Saturday night; we might just
Win our Soccer league.

I Didn't Think A Movie Could Get More Needlessly Sexually Charged And Mindlessly Violent Than Crank Until I Saw Crank 2: High Voltage

Watched Crank 2 tonight;
Even more ridiculous
Than the first one was.

It Almost Devolved Into A Debate On The Authority Of Scripture, But Luckily It Didn't

It went well today,
Despite varied methods of
Interpretation.

It Should Be Fun. I'll Let You All Know Tomorrow How It Went Down

Gonna school seniors
With some Jonah action based
On this here blog post.

Not Too Scared To Go Through With It, But A Little Bit Worried To Teach A Sunday School Class That Actually Wants To Listen

Teaching Sunday School
To senior adults and am
A little bit scared.

Far Too Much Going On In My Life At The Moment

Egg on my face gone;
Caught back up on daily posts
Of blissful haikus.
