GOP Presidential Candidates review, in Haiku

By Aaron Brooks

Mitt Romney

 

On cold snowy nights,

your dad sat hungry sobbing.

Romney got a raise.

 

Winter was pushed aside.

The trees are just the right height,

around Michigan.

 

A hot sweaty kiss.

For everyone except the Mormon,

no one wants Romney

 

On Halloween night.

Corporations knock my door,

dressed as people.

 

Rick Santorum

 

Santorum surged,

called college students snobs.

Wears sweater vest.

 

All I knew of Rick,

his sweater vest collection.

When flowers last bloom.

 

Easting a corn dog,

Bachmann looked prettier.

Put mayo on it.

 

The squirrels skitter,

try to dig up some old nuts.

Mitt/Rick 2012.

 

Ron Paul

 

Snowplows clear my street.

Vote Ron Paul 2012,

I am snowed in.

 

The sheep are mating,

I trade them for milk and bread.

Wallet can’t hold sheep.

 

Ron Paul 2012,

pot smoke rises to the sky.

Will get 10 percent.

 

Cheers erupt from them,

no second thought “Let him die!”

Life is not sacred.

 

Newt Gingrich

 

Must be conquered:

The lemon-lipped blondes,

and tranquil blue moon.

 

Defrosted for hope,

a bloated whale exposed.

Gingrich 2012.

 

Cain snatches limelight,

Gingrich toasts s’mores alone.

Burnt Marshmallow.

 

Unscrupulous speech,

spoken from the dark shadows.

Leaders fall like leaves.
