Some Thoughts On Stamps

Two Haikus, A Limerick, and some thoughts from the perspective of an addict of stamps.


Haiku:

Is it that a stamp
Can bring me to Nirvana?
Yes, That is the case

2.
I buy you in sheets
Sometimes in excessive rolls
But you complete me

Limerick

There once was an addict of stamps
Whose friends never gave him the chance
To beat his addiction
Which was an affliction
So he retired as a seller of lamps


and finally...

Stamp glue, so divine
Leaving a trace of mint
or lime
Where would I be
Without your adhesive?
It seems that life
Would not be cohesive
In the morning,
Around eight or nine
Paying the bills,
My life isn't
Until my taste buds
Finally grace you
Life is so much better
When I can taste you
Then I find that I am fine
Oh stamp glue, so divine.

oh my god. i love you. i think my favorite is the limerick, or maybe the last part, i don't know, they're all strangely enjoyable.

{p.s. this would be rachel of the fairbanks persuasion}

when i first read the 2nd haiku, i thought first of toilet paper, but then i realized, "oh.. she's still on stamps."
