uselessness

your comment prompts my memory

'twas said I know not when but by a footballer when asked about an upcoming game, I think

"I never predict the future, AND I NEVER WILL".

'Twas deliberate.
I've never made a mistake
(And I never will).

"I've always said reesetee"
But I steer clear of haiku
though I can count to six.

My apologies.
Uselessness was always right.
Brilliant guy, he is.

Hold on there, reesetee.
I sure didn't get it wrong.
I've always said "reesetee."

No worries, my friend.
Everyone gets it wrong once.
Someday, better nick.

Oops. My bad, reesetee.
I'll just stick to News Haikus.
Plus, I'm out of dimes.

I hate to tell you
"ReeseTee" has two syllables.
So much for haiku.

Well said, reesetee,
And you as well, uselessness.
S: please pass the bag.

Or sometimes it's like
Hippopotamus stomach
And pickled pig lips.

It's drugs and Wordie;
They go together like, um...
Like desktops and mud?

This has gotten weird.
Someone is smoking something.
Perhaps a dime bag.

Nice of them to make
Their name five syllables, no?
(And thanks, uselessness.)

Say, Asativum,
That Wikipedia link
Made a great haiku.

Once cheap, copper soared,
Til a cent cost more to make.
Now it's just habit.

I should explain, then.
I meant the color copper.
Weird little brown coin.

Just a copper shell;
Most of it seems to be zinc.

And what about the
Penny? Why is it copper?
I just don't get it.

A dime is so small
A nickel is much bigger
Money is a joke

When I was at school
"dime bar" was playground slang for
a doltish person.

Make that six haikus
This is Wordie, after all:
We can't help ourselves.

Five haikus on change,
Didn't even cost a dime.
Ha! How cool is that?

I stole some ice cream
Then uselessness dropped the dime
Now I am in jail

What a special coin.
I can see why it was dear.
I wish mine did drugs.

Yes, you may wonder,
But the dime was on steroids.
Big controversy!

Ice cream for ten cents?
In 2008, you say?
Just where do you live?

A 10-cent Haiku

Hello shiny friend,
I will never let you go.
Oops! An ice cream truck.
