Is it too late to add another video-inspired Haiku?

Wowie kapowie
Bentley treads the red carpet
Of vermi-wood fame

Vermeister to stars,
Bentley what is the secret
Of your vermi-pics?

Why so round, red, firm ?
What worm-star training secrets?
Vermi-abs of steel

From Alpaca poo
To torn cardboard, exotic
Or mundane, foodstuff

Is the wow-power
Behind video-glam worm stars
I still love my worms

Family asks what
Are you going to do with
Tens of thousands worms?

Well, er, ah, umm, hmm
Hey, ask me no hard questions!
Just playing by ear

But I will admit
That the squirm herd is growing
Daily by leaping bounds

fishing is o.k.
as long as the worms not red
artificials!

I’m the flounder king
flounder fishing is my thing
compost flounder poo?

try a golden spoon
or try a “storm swimmin shad”
shad color is best!

So true Larry D
This is very new to me
Having fun is key

Yes I fish, so true.
worms, not used one, thats true too.
Will I, well, no clue.

This is it for me.
Thanks for all the poetry.
Had fun, honestly

Barb v.finds fun stuff
tumbled worms sometimes look rough
never have enough

Bentley is worm king
the compost guy is his thing
but can Bentley sing?

What’s with all the rhymes?
trying to have a good time!
helps from time to time!

worms are not fish food
ted said he was the worm dude
poetry he spewed

worms all day and night
they love to have a food fight
eat with all their might

worms are in the news
worms are also on you tube
count the numbers viewed

This is from a real headline:

“Vermicomposting
‘Worming’ its way into hearts
Of recyclers”

Typical headline
Often in the news today
Verm-keeping is hot

Say that again. Hot?
I’ll believe that when each
Home has a worm bin

Still, nice to think of
Composting dispossessing
Trash hauling dumping

Fireworks booms are said
To frighten pet animals
How will worms react?

Cool as cucumbers
Oblivious to kabooms
Worm pit all serene

Picnic leftovers
Create way more excitement
Than boom boom kabang

I say nay to thee
place your squirm in manure
and watch them mature.

Are you kidding me?
worms run, not dance in the light
Don’t you know I’m right?

You have failed it’s true
My wisdom has shattered you
I am the worm dude

question your worm rhymes?
question your worm poetry?
are you kidding me?

worm power extremes
worms are poetry themselves
watch them dance in light

worms around the clock
worms all day and through the night
worm lovers delight
