Election haikus: is anything about today poetic?
So much has already been said about this election, so on this (hopefully) final day, let's keep things short -- like, say, to 17 syllables.
It's election day!
The country waits to see who
has better lawyers.Will P. Diddy kill
non-voters? If jailed, at least
one good thing happens.One-three-nine years since
last civil war. Can we make
it to one-forty?The campaign's over?
What will TV stations do
for ad revenue?A traitor? Fader?
Fair trader? An invader?
Impact of Nader?Who needs exit polls?
To know results, just check
sweat on Fox News’s browAnd God said to Jeb:
“Count all votes this time, and plague
of hurricanes lifts.”
(More haikus will be added throughout the day. Got one? E-mail it to me, or add it to the comments section.)

So, I work at blockbuster and today probably 3 people told me they were renting stuff "'Cause there's going to be NOTHING on TV tonight."
Come ON! I literally haven't sat down and turned the tv on since the last election.
Cold breeze in school gym
Voting booth's curtain flutters
Glimpse of flannel coat
Campaigners outside
polling locations: go home!
Let voters speak once.
While leaving the booth,
I feel a tap from behind.
I've been exit polled!
