Canadian geese
Honking, wingéd bowling pins
That shit on your yard

LOL! As a canadian I'll admit I was a little miffed at the first read, but in rereading I have come to agree: they do look just like winged bowling pins...

Hahaha, oh dear..that's genius. I'm too scared to be so blunt in my poems, you've done this well..straight to the point. I love haiku's that go against their normal conventions. well done x

Funny and clever, never thought of geese as bowling pins.

Hmmm... another way of seeing the winged migration... may you not be shat upon.
