Trash Candy Haiku
Give me the almond
Joy of joys if you don’t want
Good things in your life.
Homer Room 666
Beware the last room in
Homer: the forsaken
Class deep into the hall.
Beware the devil’s room:
Where toxic water flows
Like a river of blood.
Beware the room’s warden:
He sounds like Mr. Grieb,
He is not Mr. Grieb.
Beware its residents:
Husks of students long dead
Hiding in the drawers.
Beware the witching hour:
Z period classes,
And infinite chem tests.
Beware the midnight bell:
So when it rings, you are
Not brought to the drawers.
The Group Costume (A Limerick)
Halloween we all wanted to be
Each someone from Transformers Three,
But despite our ambitions
And specific conditions
We all ended up Bumblebee.
