Because actual updates are still beyond me

** **
Stop falling, you rain.
Stripey blue socks with no shoes
and you don't mix well.
**		 Goat cheese for each meal,
with apples and stale baguette,
make a happy Meg.
**

This job is a game,
Pretend to be smarter, yes,
but be a monkey.
**		 My trolley lurches,
small girl sings nonsense to me,
birthday balloon bobs.
**
He's a carpenter,
not a help desk guy, he says.
Don't tell his day job.
**		 Grad school apps loom big
but there are movies to watch
and boyfriend to hug.
**
Not NaNoWriMo,
These words will decide my life.
No wonder they freeze.
**		 Reading Naked Ape
Like watching football, I curse
the stupid ideas.
**
When brunch takes all day,
and migraine pills clench my teeth,
my Sunday is gone.
**		 I can't remember
When last I called my parents.
No guilt, just a void.
**
Coworkers tease me:
Am I from New York because
I wear only black?
**		 Left S.F. days back.
Didn't leave my heart, but I
left my best friend there.
**
Counting syllables
Makes me forget what I say,
I'm more free this way.
**		 Form follows function?
Not in a haiku, my friend,
form counts out my words.
**
Doot doo doo de doo
Tra la la la tra la la
Yodelai-hee-hoo
**		 I've no sense of time,
I may cave and buy a watch.
I am yuppie scum.
**
When was the last time
I read a damned newspaper?
I almost miss news.
**		 I'm so sorry I
haven't been in touch with you.
Which you? All of you.
**

Mmm, goat cheese with apple and baguette would make a happy Erin too.

I highly recommend eating such things for lunch - goat cheese and apples from farmer's market, yesterday's bread on sale from local bakery. Cheap and tasty and fresh. You have got farmer's markets in Jersey, right?? =)

Of course we do :P Not particularly close to me, many more down by [livejournal.com profile] squidia's, but we do. And i'm still working on the apples we picked, so there's no shortage in that department. Perhaps i will have to eat that for lunch tomorrow. I'm generally lazy and just bring dinner leftovers or peanut butter & jelly sandwiches with one of the many apples, but i do yearn for a change sometimes.
