The Condition Defined
Poetry,
When haiku takes a hike –
Writer’s block.
——————————
Meat market,
When cleavers won’t cut –
Butcher’s block.
——————————
Baby leaves
A or B or C –
Stumbling block.
——————————
Keep coming:
A, B, C, D, E –
Block traffic.
——————————
Tax season,
They say they will help:
HR Block.
——————————
When your spouse
Just does not get it –
The blockhead.
—————————–
Seniors have
Been round and round and
Round the block.
—————————–
That tower –
No, you can’t build it.
City block.
—————————–
Someone heads
For last piece of pie –
Block, tackle.
—————————–
Turning down
An offer for help –
A blockaid.
—————————–
Cloudy day,
Non-working sundial –
Rock clock block.

* The haiku I write are lines of 3-5-3 syllables instead of 5-7-5.

The Bard on the Hill 
You know I do really like trying different forms when I get a touch of the block. Sonnets, Haikus, limmericks, etc…
Good ones Dennis, hope your Christmas went well and you didn’t get too sick of (or on) chocolate block.
Ha ha ha, looks like you’re all ‘blocked’ up there Dennis… tablespoon of Cod Liver oil perhaps?
Regards and Happy New Year,
T.
I love the humor in your haiku!
And I needed some humor today, so thank you.
