Short Stick In The Mud To Be Poems

No stick and no mud
No bird in the hand nor bush
No stones to kill two...

One wild happy-go-lucky senryu
Was caught impersonating a haiku
They levied no fines
But removed two lines
Now she's a stick-in-the-mud monoku...

The wind turned into a storm,

Very strong,

Trees and plants turned like a stick planted on mud,

In any angle to the command,

The palm leaves of palms trees too,

In the storm,

Looked like uncombed wet hairs of a woman after a bath!...

Here I am
a pin-cushioned thumbtack
stuck in my ways
like a stick in the mud
or a telephone pole
obstructing the gorgeous view 
of a T-Mobile tower
flapping my wires
            &
watching the crows
pass me over on by.

You filthy rodent
Why did you eat up my plants?
You're a stubborn pest

You stick in the mud
Why did you chew up my crops?
You're very naughty!

Shame on you, silly, hairless rodent!
Remind me to buy some chicken wire or rodent traps!

Bumps in the Road

Life is going sweet
Life is going good
When you finally got the beat
Your a stick in the mud

Don't let it bring your down
You still got the whole song
You'll make it all good some how
You can still go on

Don't let anybody tell you
That your going to fail
Don't let them tell you what to do 
Don't stop when you break a nail...
