Summer of Athena Haikus

Summertime basking
Relaxing poolside, fleecing
Aquatic good vibes

Inflatable swan
Stole my heart at Home Depot
Only 18 bucks

Grassy ideas
Mowing lawns and taking names
The whole thirteen yards

Backyard corn mazes
Wanted: Garden Hose Mover
What up my gnomie 

Vacant bowels, cold eyes
Splayed in front of the stairs fan
Taxidermists skulk

Joe Rogan pocast
Why do you love random things?
Cage match of science

Hey there Bert Kreischer
You should host a TV show
Boxing kangaroos 

Natasha, Moshe
Delicious comedy pair
Podcast fodder

Take my mind off dogs
Oh I know, write some haikus
Mostly about dogs

A summer puppy
Departed dog days, summer
Funny how things work

It's tough saying bye
Realizing mortality
Grasping at banned straws

Collar facing west
How you properly honor
The sweetest mutt ever

Durant and Curry
Ought to take a brief lesson
Canine warrior 


You had a Chuckit!
We used to launch tennis balls
Across a wide field


I took you for walks
Really you were walking me
Your poo in my hand 

Someone should tell you
When pick up your cute puppy 
One day it will die

It wrecks your psyche
If you watch an entire game
Of the Mariners

Good dog, Athena
You did such a good job, girl
Apple orchard-bound

Burlington Petco
Outside Burlington Petco
Drove a minivan

OK let’s do it
What we always said we would 
Make a kung fu film

Buy Chris's books SPONGE CAKE & WHAT'S IN THE FRIDGE? on Amazon
