Haikubole

Combining the Japanese zen simplicity of haiku with the American arrogance of hyperbole, I present two original haikubole compositions.

The Cocky Bibliophile
Books I read daily.
Number one hundred or more.
You know you can't hang.


The Early Riser
Twenty miles I ran.
Two hundred push-ups as well.
All before breakfast.
