ANDY’S HAIKUS

Hey, why the long face,

Mr. Smooth Fox Terrier?

Dog jokes never die.

Stay down, crazy pooch!

Stop jumping all over me.

Enough love—O.K.?

Petal ears on top,

Triangles of attention,

Pick us up also.

Aloft and agog,

My old dads, depanniered,

Cancelled fox’s plan.

Unacceptable,

4 A.M. nose in my ear.

Oh, well—c’mon under.

Prewash your plates

Is what I do around here:

Lift that door and die!

Circling your cushion,

Settled on your spot to nap:

Curvature ensues.

Black patches on white

Form an archipelago:

Terrierana.
