Haiku Coo Crazy

In retrospect, perhaps offering to write original haiku bookplates for anyone who bought Foop! this holiday season wasn't the brightest of ideas. I guess I never took a second to stop and think that maybe a lot of people would take advantage of such an offer, and therefore I'd have to write more haikus than any one man should have to write.

The first thirty or so haikus were great, but now I'm starting to lose it. The last one I wrote goes like this:

"Put down my grandpa!"
Said the little boy to me
As I ran like hell

I mean, really now. A haiku about me stealing some little boy's grandfather? Is that really appropriate for the holiday season?

So if you still want to take advantage of said Holiday Haiku Foop! Bookplate offer, you'd better get those orders in to me ASAP. Because I don't know how long I'm going to be able to maintain the thin grasp I have on my haiku sanity.
