magnetic haiku #2

author's note

Sometime this week -- maybe today, maybe tomorrow -- MadHaiku will record the 30,000th visitor since I started keeping track of this crap a few years ago. I'm pretty certain it won't be my mom visiting for the 30,000th time. I mean, Moms is crazy but she's not that crazy. Besides, she doesn't even own a computer.

No, it won't be Moms, but it could be you. Yay you.

Sorry, but that's about all the recognition you're going to get. The sad truth is, the 30,000th visitor, like the 300 millionth American, is a pretty irrelevant milestone -- just a statistical curiosity no more important than the 29,999th visitor or the 30,001th visitor. It's a nice round number, that's all. It's not even a lot, considering some places probably get that many visitors in a minute.

Still, it's recognition that there are a few of you with nothing better to do. And for that I can rejoice.

the theory of relativity simplified

the clocks in my house
all say something different
i'm early -- or late

what, me worry?

"don't sweat the small shit"
so the stupid saying goes
what if it's all big?

to all the draft-dodging stay-the-course dickheads
in the white house (and elsewhere)

i'm a veteran
i served my country well (mostly)
who the fuck are you to question my loyalty

reincarnate me*

birth is just the beginning
of the friggin' end
