"Composing Haikus" (P.o.t.D. 1/30/15)

Helicopter whirling
Outside my door makes me pause,
Mumbling 'bout the State.

Guitar plucking, too,
From roommate in other room -
TV's on, unseen.

"Damn it, Damn it, Damn!
Poem's not cooperating!"
Moments slip through hands...

Hunkered on laptop,
Pecking at keyboard and brain,
Jumbled thoughts swirl 'round...

Some times, the moments
Escape distracted poets
While they play with rules.
