Consider all the things that infuriate you every day. Does the present lot of politicians ever propose anything to help end such frustration?
They do not.
America clearly needs me to be its president. Right away.
If elected, I will . . .

Gourmet bunny
There’s a bunny outside my outside window! I have to watch it.
It likes to eat weeds. I like that it likes weeds.
Specifically, it prefers stray bits of weed that have been cut off by my weed whacker and have started to turn brown.
I have gourmet bunnies living out front in the hedge.

Haikus are little three-line poems. The first lines has five syllables. The next line has seven, while the last lines reverts back to five.
See the following traditional haiku. It evokes clumsiness, mess, iredeemable loss, and hunger.
LOSS
I dropped my soup bowl.
Soup went all over the floor.
I shall go hungry.
Sure, that’s brilliant but, in general, writing good poetry is hard. That’s why today’s aspiring poets are flocking to one-word haikus.
The following one-word haiku evokes tacos.
TACOS
Tacos.
See great one-word haikus are easy. Give it a whirl. Please send me what you come up with.

TIDBITS
1) “O Sole Mio” is an excellent Neapolitan song written by Giovanni Capurro. It means “My Sun.”
2) “O Sole Meuniere” is an excellent-mostly song written by the Powegian Paul R. De Lancey.
3) Here are a few verses:
What a beautiful thing is fried Dove sole!
The air in the kitchen smells so nice
As long as fan above the stove is set to high
Don’t forget to use clarified butter
The guests will appreciate your efforts!
