I drive far out there.
Finally alone, at peace.
$#!+, my truck is stuck.

Monsoon rain on rocks,
Vibram sole meets wet lichen.
Now I need stitches.

Desert Solitaire
not just a book, a life goal
is where I find peace

I just re-read Desert Solitaire recently. Love the story of the moon-eyed horse

Nice, but when I think of haikus, I think short. A series of haikus seems to defeat the purpose of a haiku; distilling a broad experience into a concise three-line packet.

this wine is so good
I want to drink it all up
before I lay down

I love the haiku
Five then seven five moras
Let's get it right folks

Sorry, had to do it! I wrote a haiku for my fantasy football message board, but I won't repeat it here because we're all respectable people.
[edit: I misspelled "haiku"]

an ode to catclaw:
nothing to say except for
I really hate you

Umbrella hikes are a
Sentimental Journey to
your inner most blank

Look for an answer
This is a Indian
If only I could

I have microbrews
And six Lombardi Trophies
Here We Go Steelers!

Arizona rocks
Crush the Chippewa nation
Even without Gronk

I feel pretty oh
so pretty and witty and
I must be really drunk now

not really I'm working ;)

Sappy skunk drunk Bob
his syllables unbalanced
yet he stands so proud

Proud of corse I yam
I can spel and reed big words
Whats a sillybill

;)

I am bulletproof
Ten feet tall and full of beer
DUI be damned.

Drank too much Yeungling
Nasty Primanti sandwich
Dammn I hate Pittsburgh

Frankie's Cheesesteaks rules
Drank too much beer in the heat
Long day in Tucson

Blissful autumn here
Red maples and gold aspens
God bless the pigskin

You can have my beer
When you can pry it from my
Cold, lifeless fingers

Wally is no man
Sarah Connor is his prey
Skynet makes him hike

Sasquatch led the way
Showed me what he loves the most
Mostly loves donuts

I PM all day
Never get any response
Hikebot must hate me

Hike like a death march
Bayonet is at my back
Thanks for the hike Bob

Tough hike going up
Even rougher coming down
My ACL hurts
