As hers aglow that Venus
Would die of envy....

Attempts At Haiku
How she devours fare
And still look fairly pretty
Is beyond me.

Like clear December skies, 
Can melt hearts of ice....

torments daily
waking me up at three am

ignores my meager attempts at domination
For she is the queen of us...

vailed beneath languid lips,
voraciously needing
valerian release.
Vain are my attempts to
vocalize her desire.

Outrageous attempts to masquerade us.
Righteously hidden in the wrongs.
Drowning out the truth.
Significantly affecting youthful minds....

Frustrated, angry, I decided to walk with a bat.
Next five of my attempts brought me a success,
The wisest idea, no doubt in that!...
