So Many Haikus, So Little Time

April 13, 2018

Long winter nights need

Outlets creative, or,

the Trapper goes insane

A flintlock rifle

Powder, bone-dry and coal-black

Are Trapper’s dear friends.

Strong pouches forged from

Metal, army strong. Jerky

stays moist and juicy.

Old Trapper, Spicy

And Hot Jerky, my mouth burns.

Best paired with water.

A forested home

I share with large, angry cats

Always on the prowl.

Pepperoni stick.

Your spice is maddening in

Its deliciousness.

Search out the wild place

You find most terrifying

Then, make it your home.

Lean Beef, seasoned and

Smoked over burning, bright coals.

Choose your favorite.

Kippered, peppered steak.

Spicy hunks of seasoned beef,

Makes my mouth water.

Before you go fish

Load your tacklebox up with

Man’s favorite bait.

Teriyaki sweet

Beef is my snack of choice for

Lazy Afternoons.
