Fantasy Haiku Week 6
The eagerness to consume fantasy advice is unmatched. The insecurity and relentless quest for approval on choices from both fantasy “experts” and peers alike is a throwback to those junior high goon days. Even pipe legged JNCO’s were somehow ill fitting. And your best jokes were ripped off from Austin Powers “The Spy Who Shagged Me.” To oblige your request for reassurance as efficiently as possible I’ve written a Love/Hate in the traditional Japanese Haiku styling. (5 syllables 7 syllables 5 syllables). Enjoy and don’t fret that you once attempted to dress more like Carson Daily to look cool. (pinky painted black)
