Haiku Friday: What Now?

The elections are
over now. The signs are down.
Campaigning silenced.

Now for the let-down.
After all this time, what will
we talk about now?

It’s true. Just a couple of days post-election, and I no longer feel the urge to read Huffington Post every hour. I missed the evening news tonight and didn’t feel the urge to switch over to MSNBC to see if there were any new polls. The surge of emotion has climaxed, and we slowly drift back into our “old” lives, free of famous plumbers, folksy politicians, and political commercials every 2 minutes.

And I’ve already started wondering, with all of that time spent on politics now gone, I feel like I’m empty and need to fill that space. Maybe I’ll take up knitting again?

To play along for Haiku Friday, follow these steps:

1. Write your own haiku on your blog. You can do one or many, all following a theme or just random. What’s a haiku, you ask? Click here.

2. Sign the Mister Linky below with your name and the link to your haiku post (the specific post URL, not your main blog URL). DON’T sign unless you have a haiku this week. If you need help with this, please let me know.

3. Pick up a Haiku Friday button to display on the post or in your sidebar by clicking the button at the top.

REMEMBER: Do not post your link unless you have a haiku this week! I will delete any links without haiku!
