Here are some more of our favorite Country Haiku submissions, from the sweet to the less so.
By Heather Kauffman:
Far from the bright lights
The lonely, lost, and loveless
Sing of truth in twang
By David Ferguson:
It’s the sound you hear
when lonely men and women
break each other’s hearts.
By Jim Tragos:
Trailer park heartbreak
Suddenly becomes sublime,
Sung with steel guitar.
and
After six months drunk,
I finally write that ballad.
I move on with life.
By Lonnie Been:
Cheating and being
cheated on. That’s the essence
of country music.
By Timothy G. Owens:
Hound dogs and hooters,
Either one can break a heart.
Keep your bone at home.
By Tom Allen:
My life sucks enough
This music is what I get?
I shoulda been punk.
