EJ Etherington:
That was more than one
Credibility is gone
But go on, speak up
Abby Schwalb:
Mister McGuire
Exactly how do you mean?
There's a great future....
EJ Etherington:
A haiku response
Do you think you can take me?
I will out 'ku you!
Dave Lindenbaum:
Both need to bow heads
In deference to the form
Not competition.
Abby Schwalb:
Dave.... sweetly naive
I don't fear his haiku skills
Just his swelling head
EJ Etherington:
You spelled HaiYa wrong
Its alright, I still like you
Despite your spelling
Your Haiku fails too
Inspire the fat headed
(See what I did there?)
Abby Schwalb
You are one to talk
Hear you spell here not so good
Pot calling kettle
EJ Etherington
What did I spell wrong?
And don't go getting racist
It doesn't suit you
Abby Schwalb:
You forget quickly
Things you don't want to recall
Wish I could do that
Black, white, red, brown, green...
I like you all just the same
Don't listen to him
EJ Etherington:
When are we talking?
This alleged misspelling,
Is it even real?
Abby Schwalb:
I can't be proven
Although it surely happened
Since you hit delete
EJ Etherington:
Surely, it happens.
I thought it was specific,
What you referred to.
EJ Etherington:
B T W
This Haiku war is kick-ass
It will get posted.
Abby Schwalb:
"Facebook cry for help
Even if you don't see it
I'm here for you Abs"
Ever seen this one?...
It's been altered in some way
By your sneaky hand
Abby Schwalb:
Only BTW?
That's only three, no?
I think that may mean you lose.
EJ Etherington:
I am perfection!
Imperfectly perfecting,
and Refining 'ku
EJ Etherington
Bee Tee Double You
I do believe that is five
I will never lose
Abby Schwalb:
I'm not much surprised
About your bending the rules
To get what you want :-P
EJ Etherington:
Who is rule bending?
Letters are not syllables
I think you just lost.
Abby Schwalb:
I will not concede
Looks like I can't do Tuesday
So really, you lose
EJ Etherington:
Man, that was random
Why don't you share what that means
With the rest of us?
Abby Schwalb:
Do you really think
Anyone else on Facebook
Is seeing this war?
EJ Etherington:
Dave, Carol, Daniel...
Oh and Liz, get messages,
Driving them crazy
Abby Schwalb:
No, after a while
FB stops sending updates
It's you and me, kid
EJ Etherington:
WTF
Thats not my experience
What are we doing?
Abby Schwalb:
What we always do
Entertaining each other
With utter nonsense
Carol Grunberg:
I can't compete with the prose
Voyeuristic it feels
Enjoying the banter
Dave Lindenbaum:
Good lord, you two
The finest atavism
Go for jugular.
EJ Etherington :
When writing haiku,
I dont skip the articles.
Its kind of cheating.
Dave Lindenbaum:
I myself prefer
Few, if any, articles.
Hey, whatever works.
Abby Schwalb:
Do what works for you
'ku is rather personal
Artistic license

Even if you're tired
(and I am too, that's for sure)
Friendship is worth it
(and I am too, that's for sure)
Friendship is worth it
