Tifosi line roads
cheering favorite rider
disappointment, last
Sometimes I wonder...why is that Frisbee getting bigger?...and then it hits me.

The Love of Haiku
Why can’t I never
make this stupid fucking fuck-
ing fucking thing work

Green, White, Red, they are,
The horn-ed socks of evil.
and that one damn tooth.

The nebulous past,
hides the shining eyed horror,
that is Girbecco.

Dropped by DiLuca
Garzelli fights his way back
Suffers public scorn

Reflections on what might have been:
Having lost Horner
Astana team cannot lead
Nor can they support
"Think globally, bike locally."

Down deep in my heart
I can’t trust the ex-dopers
but hope they are clean.

The Epic of Girbecco
The nebulous past
hides the shining eyed horror
that is Girbecco
Not dead, not alive
a seething sinister love
questing for your soul
Among the elders
Ancient stories would be told
of colored horn socks
The festering green
The white of your fear filled eye
The sanguinous red
Bloated with moon light
thick red mists shrouding the rim
of Vesuvio
Ancient wickedness
spreading forth as an ulcer
from the crater
Cloven hooved horror
thus birthed volcanically
cannot be unmade
Our souls recoil
The old God descends among
this new mortal throng
A reaper of minds
Girbecco knows nothing, yet
encompasses all
His gloves of shadow
His boots of hardened evil
This, this kit of doom
The hoof at your door
You stand stripped of all reason
Now your mind is gone
The devourer.
The Ancient God consuming;
feasting on the sane.
A rippling wake
insanity clouds your thought
gibbering for him
New worshippers now
singing paens unto him;
unto Girbecco
The sycophants rise
Their minds embracing his love
strangers to themselves
The reaper recedes
the shattered minds and soulless
follow up the rim
His smile never leaves
as they dance over the edge
finding no bottom
Descending the dark
Girbecco attends their fall
Thus ends his Giro
Respect the Shit List; it respects you.

How about you write
“I love haikus” a hundred
times on the chalk board
Respect the Shit List; it respects you.

One hundred times I will write
Then we graduate?
