Barack Haiku

Meds, money, air, war/

Arcing in graceful tosses/

Fall’s tense performance/

#obama, #haiku, #juggling, #economy, #war, #afghanistan, #healthcare reform, #cap and trade

Blue tear, green soldier/

Afghan mud, sucks, deeply now/

The true fight, years late/

#afghanistan, #obama, #war, #haiku, #bin laden

Better men than Joe/

Lost in 1865/

Evil then, wrong today/

Ship’s steering funny /

Something stuck on the starboard /

Curse those barnacles/


#republicans, #healthcare reform, #haiku, #joint session

The Captain stands tall/

#healthcare reform, #obama, #joint session, #congress, #haiku

Summer’s sweaty end/

You fired up? Ready to go?/

Plug on, change one mind/

#obama, #speech, #afl-cio, #motivation

Hope has escaped/

Blood money roots for the kill/

Throw in, or fight back?/
