It's eerie. I did a show about weekends last Friday, &, as if by calendaric magic, I got a Saturday & Sunday in quick succession afterwards. I tried to do a weekends show today, in the privacy of my little cubicle at work, but all I got was the promise of a Tuesday, &, if I was good, maybe even a Wednesday so just shut the fuck up & get back to work.
But nicely poetic & poetically nice folks wrote nice, poetic haikus for the show. As always, I tell you there are great rewards for writing haikus for Self Help Radio. Just ask these four fine folks:
FOURTH PLACE: Michelle
I love the weekend
Even though I'm unemployed
& I sleep all day
THIRD PLACE: John
So the week must end
We dance over its dead body
Like we have no choice.
SECOND PLACE: Pete
The weekend's too short
Make Saturday two days long
Hey! Now you're talking!
FIRST PLACE: Valerie
Swimming, drinking, rest
Dancing, partying, yard work
Movies, sports: week end.
This week's the World Famous Self Help Radio Halloween Show. This year's all about monsters. If you have a haiku in mind, do share it with us.
