Lightning does strike twice…

“Tonka on Toilet Paper”

Quilted, soft, or rough,
The fate of the unspared square
Is always the same:
Circling its porcelain grave
An unmourned, frail paper wraith.

The rare poetic utterance.

I recently watched “Run Lola Run” for the umpteenth time (I have lines memorized in German…and I don’t speak German — that’s how many times I’ve seen this movie), and this little senryu came tumbling out:

Suppositional
Rashomon, only German
With a chick running.

Do I get bonus points for using up an entire line’s worth of syllables on a single word? I should.

So, I fail. Again.

Fuck, fuck, fuck-a-doodle fuck-fuck. Another fucking self-imposed deadline missed. I don’t know why I bother, frankly…

Anyway, secret project is still a go, but start date is postponed due to lingering illness and lack of proper equipment.

Fuck.

P.S.
I identify with this comic so much it’s scary.
