A Note About The Cushing Treasury Of Bizarro Haiku:
I originally wrote these haiku for the story blog Every Tree Has A Face. They’re me at my most spontaneous (most of them took about 15 minutes — some only 15 seconds — to compose). Enjoy!

does kids’ parties on the side.

“See zen, Duck?” “See zen, Rabbit!”

I’d have Thomas Ligotti do my kid’s party.
This is why I shouldn’t have children.
