Today's Train Commute Haiku: 


Hey, Captain Caveman

Must you comb your luscious locks


For 15 minutes?

Train Commute Haiku #466:
That gaggle of geese
Seems to enjoy eating grass
And smoking it, too

Train Commute Haiku #465:
That guy is watching
An old episode of "ALF"
On his telephone

Train Commute Haiku #465:
When you wear earphones
There’s no need to talk so loud
We hear you just fine

Train Commute Haiku #464:
I’m not sure if they’re
In line for that DMV
Or for Chuck E. Cheese

Train Commute Haiku #463:
I think it's quite sweet
That Amtrak offers pillows
But I'll pass, thank you

Train Commute Haiku #462:
Her bright blouse matches
The fluorescent green pond scum
There on yonder farm

Train Commute Haiku #461:
Where did you find TaB?
Did you pull it from your fridge
In 1980?

Train Commute Haiku #460:
Has anybody
Ever said you resemble
The Purple Pie Man?

Train Commute Haiku #459:
Chew on this advice
My new chatty, hungry friend
Say it, don’t spray it

Train Commute Haiku #458:
Your Axe Body Spray
Must be very effective
For attracting moose

Train Commute Haiku #457:
I don’t like goodbyes
Parting is such sweet sorrow
Farewell, train seatmate

Train Commute Haiku #456:
Mr. Fancy Pants
I hate to break it to you
Your fly is open

Train Commute Haiku #455:
Hey there, Max Headroom
I think three Coca-Colas
Should suffice for now

Train Commute Haiku #454:
Light morning drizzle
Like Mother Nature's carwash
For our filthy train

Train Commute Haiku #453:
Our morning commute
Is shorter than the night trip
Due to the tailwinds

Train Commute Haiku #452:
When you chew your gum
The loud snapping and popping
Really drives me nuts

Train Commute Haiku #451:
The honk of the train
Forms an eerie duet with
The honk of the crane

Train Commute Haiku #450:
It would be more fun
If this trip were narrated
By Morgan Freeman

Train Commute Haiku #449:
She starts out her morn
Drinking a bloody Mary
And eating Cheez-Its

Train Commute Haiku #448:
High school class bound for
Chicago’s Art Institute
Like Ferris Bueller

Train Commute Haiku #447:
She says she has a
Type A personality
I’d give it a D

Train Commute Haiku #446:
That seat is vacant
Just like the stare on her face
The past 80 miles

Train Commute Haiku #445:
Tomorrow I'll bring
My Atari 400
And just type away

Train Commute Haiku #444:
Do me a favor
When you open your yogurt
Don't point it at me

Train Commute Haiku #443:
He’s mowing his lawn
At 7:30 a.m.
Without a shirt on

Train Commute Haiku #442:
Pardon me, Madame
But the dog in your handbag
Keeps licking my arm

Train Commute Haiku #441:
Seven mallard ducks
Swoop down and glide through the pond
Like water skiers

Train Commute Haiku #440:
We’re slightly delayed
Because our train engineer
Couldn’t find his keys

Train Commute Haiku #439:
That bomb-sniffing dog
Seemed interested in my
Scooby Doo lunch box

Train Commute Haiku #438:
If you fall asleep
I'll take your Twix candy bar
You snooze, you lose, pal

Train Commute Haiku #437:
I think that guy has
Spring fever and March madness
Or he's just plain nuts

Train Commute Haiku #436:

This train is more fun
Than a barrel of monkeys
And smellier, too

Train Commute Haiku #435:
Unlike John Denver
This sunshine on my shoulder
Just makes me quite hot

Train Commute Haiku #434:
We don’t need a map
To get us to Chicago
We use GPS

Train Commute Haiku #433:
Six chubby pigeons
Flap their wings as if to say
Farewell, safe travels

Train Commute Haiku #432:
Back in the Wild West
I bet those train robberies
Annoyed commuters

Train Commute Haiku #431:
If you must know, ma’am
I’m heading off to my job
As a gigolo

Train Commute Haiku #430:
Your business card says
You sell pharmaceuticals
I’ll have some Advil

Train Commute Haiku #429:
Let's rush the engine
And take this for a joyride
Down to Joliet

Train Commute Haiku #428:
This pineapple juice
Is good for vitamin C
Bad for my keyboard

Train Commute Haiku #427:
The world speeds past me
A blur of beige fields, gray woods
And Olive Gardens

Train Commute Haiku #426:
You guys resemble
The Traveling Wilburys
Off to your next gig
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwqhdRs4jyA

Train Commute Haiku #425:
You can’t trick us, ma’am
You didn’t powder your nose
You had to tinkle

Train Commute Haiku #424:
That junkyard has a
Surprisingly large number
Of white limousines

Train Commute Haiku #423:
Please stop eavesdropping
Can’t you see that I am just
Talking to myself?

Train Commute Haiku #422:
She uses chopsticks
To eat noodles on the train
She needs a napkin

Train Commute Haiku #421:
Our conductor’s hat
Gives him magic powers like
Frosty the Snowman
                 
Train Commute Haiku #420:
We should play charades
You first. Hmmm. Let’s see. How ‘bout
Raving lunatic?

Train Commute Haiku #419:
You should ask Siri
If she thinks you talk too much
I bet she’d say yes

Train Commute Haiku #418:
Your mock turtleneck
Isn’t fooling anyone
The jig is up, pal
