87th Challenge Result (sleeping in my bed)
May 19, 2010
Hey there! Before we get to Ben’s pick, let’s look at your permanent records:
mich started us off with some words of wisdom:
Permanent record
of life: the fun and foibles—
we all wear the scars.
I amused my self with your tats:
Permanent record
of your idiocy is
your misspelled tattoo
Chuckdaddy talked tunes:
Permanent record
was a band I wish I knew
hubris implicit
mattrix can’t stop talking about work:
Permanent? Record
your Loyalty Oath: “Think Yes!”
Temp? Think: “No Bennies!”
And now, over to Ben:
All of this weeks entries were good but on a second run through, Sharon’s haiku stood out. Maybe because I could read several meanings into it or maybe I was just doing that because I could use a nap but in any case…
Permanent record
a chaos of DNA

Thanks Ben! And congratulations to Sharon! Our new first line is sleeping in my bed. Keep the haiku coming, and I will be back early next week with Sharon’s pick!
Yours,
Joanna

Sleeping in my bed
is a man I’ve never seen.
His mistake or mine?

Not sure if readers get to comment on which ones they like, but CuJen’s Haiku was great!

Sleeping in my bed
With a pillow for my head
And my wife – now wed
or
Sleeping in my bed
Is a blond little girl
The little bear said
or
Sleeping in my bed
Thoughts of you drift thru my head
Sweet dreems of you love
Peace,
Stephen

Sleeping in my bed.
That’s where I should be, but it’s
the drunk tank for me.
