Barack Haiku

Steel behind the smile/

Iron firm focus on ends/

Foil for Red anger/


#sotu, #healthcare, #obama

Green trail of Dem greed/

Senate’s slow walk of failure/

Up, down, we all lose/

#healthcare, #senate, #campaign contributions

A toast to your health/

The most in sixty long years/

And yet not enough/

Blue river, ocean bound/

Twists in oxbows and eddies/

Carves dirt as it’s found/

Whats with the name Al?/

Grayson, Franken, Gore – stand tall/

Blue pride calls bullshit/

#democrats, #al franken, #healthcare, #alan grayson, #al gore, #climate change, #ted conference

Sir prize in the box/

Judges know who’s for bright peace/

Not eight years…eight months/




#nobel peace prize, #obama, #george bush

Yes we can make change/

Resistance means its working/

Dance as you do it/




#obama, #progress, #republicans, #oprah, #chicago, #dance. #black eyed peas

Summer’s sweaty end/

You fired up? Ready to go?/

Plug on, change one mind/

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

Heat seeps through our soles/

The long walk back from Saint Ron/

Trudge on, drink water/

A Haiku Epic on Health Care

What price our good health?/

Insurers slim down, trim cash/

Eat reform veggies/

We tried Nixon’s way/

Massive profit, massive fail/

Old fight on new turf/

Now, now, or never/

Organized theft, health foes/

Pick pockets of the dead/

March forward, join arms/

A win is for all of us/

Even resisters/

#health care reform #haiku

What blue bond, cast back/

Lets blanc write on whats ethnic?/

Blood, thicker than skin/

#obama #haiku #racism #writing

Green shoots of friendship/

Rise each day, the wise farmer/

Waters with kind words/

One hundred and one/

Air freshener deployed/

Deep cleaning begins/

How does this thing work?/

Key on, gears grinding, gas low/

No manual, go!/

Tickling my ears/

“President Obama did…”/

Ear chin ear huge grin/
