Warm Haiku for June

At the 106th edition of Tuesday Funk on June 6, covfefe cohost Andrew Huff read a handful of his patented topical haiku. Pea tendrils each out as warmer breezes arrive. Gardens awaken. "Pollen hurts my eyes" doesn't sound very cool,...  read

May Haiku by Andrew

Only two haiku this month, due to Andrew's busy schedule at the end of April. Civic engagement: People talking in a gym about libraries. Sometimes, lost in thought, I pause after exhaling and forget to breathe.  read

Haiku for April 2017

Cohost Andrew Huff's haiku for the 105th edition of Tuesday Funk covered a wide range of emotions. This land was our land. This house used to be a home. Where did the love go? It's so refreshing for the Cubs...  read

Haiku for a Warm February

Cohost Andrew Huff read a handful of haiku at February's Episode #102 of Tuesday Funk. Lakeview at midnight: a vomiting young woman begs her friends to wait. A cat in a crouch, motionless but for its tail, watches a laser....  read

A Trio of Haiku for October

Cohost Andrew Huff only wrote three haiku for the October 4, 2016 episode of Tuesday Funk, and they were really diverse. VP candidates are debating each other right now. Yeah, who cares? The crack of the bat, the roar of...  read

Democratically Vetted Haiku

The parties' national conventions were on Andrew's mind as we got to the Aug. 2, 2016 edition of Tuesday Funk. The Republican National Convention was all negative. The Democratic National Convention presented some hope. Belief in science should not be...  read

Patriotic Haiku for July

Andrew was in a political mood at the July 5, 2016 edition of Tuesday Funk. Our nation's birthday, favorite of nation's kids, bane of nation's pets. Pyromaniacs send puppies into panic with sonic onslaught. Trump and Hillary give so much...  read
