Senior Samurai Haiku
1)
Moving from bed to O'benjo,
Dark mass of furry dog looms.
The night is long.
2)
Dinner served at the home,
Attendants move with ninja stealth.
Keep a fork handy!
3)
Geriatric samurai squatting
Over the O'toire, Katanta at hand.
Surprise ambush possible.
4)
Nocturnal prostate problems grow
When big meals weigh down bladders.
Eat lightly.
5)
Fragrance of digested rice and tofu
Wafts from under the futon cover.
Flowers from the pig sty.
6)
Under the kimono, muscles turn
To lumps of withered flesh.
Sagging breasts, also.

Someday we will see Tom Cruise portraying these haikus in The Last Stand Harakiri where he finally gets to cut it all out. ;-)
