It's interesting how because of current events I'm not writing about any of the topics I'd planned out for November. Hmm.
In the meantime, I distract you with further contest entries!!
Ratty breath – baited
Waiting for the perfect read
Yuck – slush – ill fated
--Kim Kasch
i have a craving
for maple glazed pork belly
get in my belly
no never again
will i wash the laundry drunk
i hate you red sock
--Jackie
Forget-me-nots
Above the sea of
Brightly coloured petals I
Wave farewell to you.
--Ann Victor
Harder. More. Faster.
Syllable count S and M
Haiku grunt and moan
--Anya
Mom said don’t mix whites
I told her that was racist
(I just like new clothes)
--Will
Splash tonic, no lime --
don't forget ibuprofen.
Wake me tomorrow.
--JES
Moonrat heaves a sigh
For her contest ends today,
And no more haikus.
--Ann Victor

Those haikus are good. But, in some cases in my opinion, a little off.
1. Moonie does not take tonic.
2. Moonie does not separate her clothes.
3. Moonie does not wash her clothing often enough for there to justify multiple haikus (haiki? haike's? haikues?) on the subject.
anon, who are you? you know me too well.
haha! these are great! the moonie devotees are so talented!!
Definitely a tough choice. I don't envy you
pssst---At your discretion, moonie, the winner may also receive the prize I posted for the Poetry contest on your Lovefest blog. (or you can assign that as a runner-up prize or something...I serve at the pleasure of the moonrat.)
Anon, regarding quibble #1: "...on anonymous lurker" made the syllable count WAY too long.
