Daydreaming

My bottle crashes
On the head of my colleague.
The meeting goes on.

Unlike her husband
The kickbox trainer could not
Ignore the loud drunk

He simply walked away from

Written by Captain Hops.

References: This haiku was inspired by (or stolen from) Al Purdy, a gritty Canadian poet that was brought to my attention by Alan over at A Good Beer Blog. As you may or may not know, Alan is having a beer poetry contest where the winner gets tickets to TAP New York, the Craft Beer and Fine Food festival. We’re talking hundreds of dollars of prizes here, so get off your duff and start versing.

Response to Optimism

She left real quickly
Lost at the bar, I ponder
Barkeep, suggestions?

Written by Ignace.

Oops…

He didn’t mean it.
Bought a beer for the wrong gal
and started a brawl
