A collection of Spam haiku ("Spamku")

Grotesque pinkish mass
In a blue can on a shelf
Quivering alone

Like some spongy rock
A granite, my piece of Spam
In sunlight on my plate

Oh Argentina!
Your little tin of meat soars
Above the pampas

The color of Spam
is natural as the sky:
A block of sunrise

Little slab of meat
In a wash of clear jelly
Now I heat the pan

Oh tin of pink meat
I ponder what you may be:
Snout or ear or feet?

In the cool morning
I fry up a slab of Spam
A dog barks next door

Pink tender morsel
Glistening with salty gel
What the hell is it?

Ears, snouts, and innards,
A homogenous mass
Pass another slice

Cube of cold pinkness
Yellow specks of porcine fat
Give me a spork please

Old man seeks doctor
"I eat Spam daily", he says.
Angioplasty

Highly unnatural
The tortured shape of this "food"
A small pink coffin

Slicing your sweet self
Salivating in suspense
Sizzle, sizzle..Spam

Pink beefy temptress
I can no longer remain
Vegetarian


Always learning new haiku. Peggy

He might not like Spam either.
It's pretty salty for dogs' tastes.

BEEF!?
oh HUH.
FEMALE!? Spam is FEMALE!?

When I was vegetarian for two years, I reverted at a group Thanksgiving, and
had some turkey.
The next day I ate a hot dog.
I have avoided liquor and shunned tobacco, but I've resigned myself to the
sin of being carnivorous.
