haiku

this week my english teacher taught us how to write a haiku – it’s a poem with three lines – five syllables in the first line, seven in the second and then five again in the third – and it doesn’t even have to rhyme! so here’s some that i wrote:

crooked pumpkin smile
scary toothy monster grin
looks like my brother

or how about:

filmy white pasty pale
ghostly wraith floats eerily
looks like my brother

and then i wrote:

black-winged creature flies
pointy fangs glistening white
looks like my brother

what do you think? they’re supposed to be about nature and stuff when you write them.

i think they’re pretty accurate.

valentine’s day

it’s not that I don’t like valentine’s day – I just like halloween more.

i mean – what’s better?

little fancy doo-dad hearts or pumpkins?

fat little flying cupids or bats?

pink or orange?

red or purple?

i’m sure you see my point.

worms are cool

i like worms.

worms are pretty cool. they crawl in the dirt and they eat dirt. at least I think they eat dirt – I mean, you can’t even tell their heads from their ends, so who knows what they eat? well, except people that study worms. i suppose they know what worms eat. and other worms would know what worms eat. after all, if you’re going to have a party for all of your worm friends it’s a pretty good idea to know what they would like to eat at the party.

i like to eat gummy worms.

so if you’re going to have me over for a party…

i don’t know about you, but i think it should be halloween every day.

i mean, who doesn’t like wearing costumes and scaring your little brother half out of his wits, right? and who doesn’t like decorating with pumpkins and ghosts and bats and skeletons? and we could have candy corn and apple cider and donuts all the time! have you seen the latest – america alone spent over seven billion dollars last year on halloween!

imagine what that would be like every day!?!?

it would be awesome!

it’s me, hamilton

bernice says i’m a lot of trouble, but actually i think she really likes me. when i grow up, i’m going to be an astronaut because she says she’s going to send me to the moon. i think that will be fun.

i like haunted houses better than anything.

and ghosts. i like ghosts as much as haunted houses.

and werewolves. i like ghosts and werewolves and haunted houses better than anything else.

and vampires. i like vampires and ghosts and haunted houses and werewolves better than anything in the whole wide world.

and frankenstein’s monster. i like ghosts and vampires and werewolves and frankenstein’s monster and haunted houses better than anything in the whole universe.

unless you have some ice cream. i REALLY like ice cream. especially pistachio. because it’s green.

this is about the time that bernice says i have to go to the moon.
