Artsy Shit III: A New Haiku

OK, OK, it's been a few days since I've felt inspired to write anything. The trip was great, spent time with Scott and the kids, weekend was awesome since I got to see two of my favorite bands play (hmmm... I think it has something to do with the bass player in each band). So it's time to kick off the week with a blog entry. Which means it's time to torture you with more haiku -- based on real-life scenes in Garden City!

You there on the bike
Riding in the pouring rain
DUI for you?

Many bike racks sit
In front of establishments
In Garden City

Longing looks are cast
As people in fancy cars
Drive to the good bars

Suspended license
Means pedaling to the bar
For the local drinkers

Ride faster flabby
Your big beer gut slows you down
Riding down the hill

Oh Garden City
With those scenic river views
From the trailer parks

I was going to write more about gamers -- card gamers in particular -- but I need to try and get sleep! Tune in tomorrow for Artsy Shit IV: Haiku Strikes Back!
