Fiduciary

Payday is today.
Time to care for all matters
Fiduciary.

Note: Okay, I know fiduciary doesn't mean the same thing as financial (at least I do after reading the definition on my calendar), but this came so quickly, misuse of the day's word and all, that I couldn't bear to not use it.

Popinjay

Political Show.
Candidates nothing more than
Preening popinjays.

Ab ovo

A new year begins.
Many things to do and explore.
Will start ab ovo.

Author's Note

As a daily writing exercise, I've decided to get back to doing this, but with an added wrinkle.  I got a Word-a-Day calendar for 2012, and I will use each day's word in that day's haiku.  For one thing, this gives me a starting place each day and makes it less likely I'll drop the ball again.  It also provides a challenge to keep the exercise interesting, particularly for days with off-beat words.

Sleepless

Awake all night long,
Bad TV to pass the time.
May sleep take me soon.

Stuck

Not moving forward,
Yet I cannot move backwards.
Can I go sideways?

Lost

Round and round I drive,
But never do I arrive.
Where do I look next?
