Asshole Haiku James Weir

The jerks in traffic. Your bad boss. Your Ex. The guy that cut in front of you at the store. Racists. Climate-change deniers. What do they have in common? They're assholes. They're everywhere. What can you do about it? Why make fun of them of course!And what better way to make fun of all the assholes in our lives than to do it using haiku. Remember haiku? The bane of your public-school English class - a three-line poem of five syllables, then seven syllables, then five syllables. It's perfect. In that light, join us as we dissect the asshole, 'celebrate' their existence, and, hopefully, exact a little mental revenge on their being. Read this collection of over one hundred verses designed to make you laugh, make you groan, and sometimes even say WTF?Remember, this collection uses profanity, and revels in its use of immature themes. It may not be the best choice for the kids to read, but your dirty grandma (hopefully she's not an asshole) will love it. About the AuthorWhen he's not busy being a poet (and we use the term poet very loosely here), James Weir is a small animal veterinarian. In addition to clinical practice, he holds graduate degrees in pathology and in public health. He has also worked as a stand-up comedian. He has been published before, but mostly boring science crap. This is his second book of poetry (again, we use this term very loosely).
