Misc. Haiku 41-45

41

My favorite poets
   Had their own problems—
How reassuring

42

This is just an act
   Me sitting here stoned and drunk
In the chair

43

Hey, aren’t the zinnias
   Pretty?
Let’s have another drink

44

As I watch The War,
   I decide to skip dinner—
The battle of my bulge

45

Bare nail in wall
   Where my painting hung—
Now I see the sun
