Sinister: haikus revealed // weeks twentythreefour // two thousand and two

[ee fumblings]

Goodbye Isobel,
have a nice life! Maybe I'll
buy your next album.

A salty price, as
we say. OK... that's all... poor
post, but from the heart.

I'll be slaughtering
my sleep schedule to stay up
until watching it.

Alone is nice though
it'd be right at home on
Wake up to Wogan.

Izzy, darling, I've
got the raging horn and I
just had to phone you.

Never in my life
did I expect to see six
on my way to work.

I'll have an empty
moment, look!I'm smiling up
to my eyes again.

I think I'm gaining
a little perspective on
this band after all.

If you forget all
of the above, they are not
good photographers.

When I was little,
I used to pronouce it as
"thees- ee-a-saurus".

But then work attacks
the imagination. Work
is a scam, you know.

I moved to London!
All the cool kids are *doing
it* these days, you know.

ONLY good looking
women-I shall keep my eyes
peeled for him next time.

Off to fill up my
er.. gas tank with a metric
gallon of er, gas.

And while I'm there that
world will feel almost complete.
(Complete, not perfect).

I'd personally
been hoping for an orgy.
Wrong party, I guess.

And I got his chin
instead, and headbutted his
nose in the process.

I remember it
so well, sitting here at my
desk, as I am now.

I was over him.
Only hours after I'd
written this letter.

Study leave came and
went.I regretted dumping
him. He carried on.

I was in fifth year.
I got it from all angles.
>From the younger year.

I do? Decided
to ask for a guitar for
my 16th birthday.

They caled me that.
They wrote it on the blackboard
in the common room.

I must send you a
quick note on The Pinefox's
visit to Dublin.

Last weekend, I went
to what must have been the worst
show I've ever seen.

I'm sure the nice chap
was relieved as well owing
to my subterfuge.

Sorry, but after
two and a half decades, the
heat's getting to me.
