Well, last week I stated that I would be back with more Olympic stuff. Since I am a man of my word I now present “Ten Haikus About The Winter Olympics.” You’re welcome.
I
He flies on his board,
twisting, flipping and soaring,
then lands on his face.
II
The best of the best
do not always get the gold.
Sometimes it’s just luck.
III
I thought Monobob
was an album by Dylan.
Turns out it’s a sport.
IV
Mickaela Shiffrin
is America’s Sweetheart.
Take that, Taylor Swift!
V
Russia is doping
little girls to win the gold
which can’t be worth it.
VI
I haven’t felt too
patriotic lately but
then BAM Olympics
VII
Skating on ice is
a beautiful thing but that
Johnny Weir makes it.
VIII
Skiing and shooting.
How do these things relate and
why is it a sport?
IX
Man, I love curling!
That’s it, just wanted to say
that I love curling
X
Four years from now
I will watch this again but
Maybe not write poems.
Enjoy the rest of the games. See you next week for more MonDAVEs.
