Haiku Monday: Are the 70′s Back?

Ryan Buchanan — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 14:10:10 +0000

I got a lot of comments on my look (see below) where I sported the 70′s stache for a solid 2 days. Most of you cringed in pain just looking at me with my stache. But some of you liked it, like a yearning for the days of Saturday Night Fever. So, your task is to comment below with a haiku on how you feel about 70′s style in today’s age.

Haiku Monday in New Year

Time to write your haiku about your thoughts and emotions towards the New Year. Join the conversation (and yes, I cheated on my syllable count below – I had to much to say – sorry):

Fear no more my friends
For 2009 is the year of optimism
Life is all perspective

Now, it’s your turn. Write your haiku in the comment box below.

Christmas is coming, the Goose is getting FAT

…time to put a penny in the old man’s hat. Sorry – inside joke among friends here.

But, back to the point at hand here. KillROI is mixing it up with some Christmas dignitaries in my house. It’s getting a little out of control here as this guy really gets around – hanging with some Nutcracker royalty, then he makes his way onto the Christmas Tree hanging with Big Bird, and now, he’s chilling with our angel – don’t get any ideas. I’ve been a bad boy with missing a couple Haiku Mondays recently, so let’s get our groove on with haikus about KillROI. Comment with a passion below.

Why do they call you KillROI

A vote tomorrow

big change will happen

Please share your comments below. It’s the only way to start your week. BTW – huge thanks to eROI employees who wrote birthday haikus to me on my card for this weekend. Yes, this is my first blog post as a much wiser and more distinguished (laughable) 34 year old.

This blog post = simple.
Intent = you have more value to add than me. You are the master – show us the way with your wise haiku. I saw KungFu Panda in the movie theater w/ my girls this weekend, I have found peace, and am inspired to read your haikus.

Haiku Monday: New eROI Days Ritual

Ryan Buchanan — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 14:04:33 +0000

I’m a huge fan of a quintessential Oregon entity called Live Wire! Radio – a mix of edgy humor, music, and Garrison Keillor-style story-telling and political humor. My wife and I went to the show w/ other folks from eROI and one distinct thing that they do at every show is the Audience Haiku. Let me preface this blog post by saying that I am clearly no poet, haiku expert. In fact, they may be so bad, that they are laughable. But, it’s Monday morning and I want to have you, my loyal blog readers, participate a little more and inspire me with some of your haikus. Here are only two ground rules – 1. it’s got to be as close as possible to 5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 syllables; 2. theme can be edgy, vulgar, random, whatever, but NO excessive swearing please. Let the absurd poetry of haiku begin.

dark in the morning
cold as hell on my red bike
I am refreshed

Anticipation
of Halloween begins and
finance market scares

Yellow leaves cascade
slick as banana peels squish
under Nike Air

Now, it’s your turn. Comment with your haiku – you could win a free eROI collectible gift of a robot named KillROI – the famous hero in www.KillSpammer.com!
