TP for ssspence for this idea.

Please post your haiku about Tony Allen.  It can be positive, it can be negative, or like a traditional haiku, it can be enigmatic.  Let the TPs abound!



Dashing up the court
burst ahead, fly!  Bricked layup
for how long, 'still young'?

What Does It Stand For?

T.A. means so much:
Tenacious and athletic ...
Or turnover-apt?

Sorry but I know only one Haiku and I absolutely love it, and have to share it, even though it's all over the internet already, just to make sure everyone has read it.

but sometimes they don't make sense

Other than that, TP for the topic, awesome, will be reading and might be contributing as soon as I find my creative cells again. Fridays are bad.

Things Have Changed

Once I liked Tony -
There were flashes of brilliance ...
Now, a detriment.



(Yes - "brilliance" is one of those "how many syllables?" words ... I say it's two, especially in this case - artistic license ;))

Inevitable?

I cross my fingers
Far too many injuries
Now I'm just waiting ...

Out For Now

Too much negative -
I'll leave so others can post
And paint their sunshine.

I apologize for the plagiarism, but I am not the poet that you are...

I cross my fingers
Which foot will he dribble off?
Now I'm just waiting...

Anticipation
Exciting and spotty play
Polarization
Good food, like good music and good love, always requires a little sweat in the making in order for it to be truly memorable.
