Eyeing a road sign
That says, “Turn Right,” he turns left.
It turns out, he’s right.
AUTHOR’S NOTE: The “he” in this haiku is my husband, Mark. He’ll freely admit to being a bit perverse. He’ll also (legitimately) brag about his great sense of direction.
I eyed this prompt and used this road sign to write this haiku.

“He” is not alone. I’ve screwed up many-a-times, merely because I didn’t want to ask for directions. What’s scary is that I know i’ll do it again.
Love the haiku.

Too darned clever - it’s truth in a pod - I know people like that and may actually be one.

Following directions puts you at the end of the line. No adventure in that.

Years ago we used to teach people to read street maps. If they didn’t know their left from their right - we’d substitute right and left for knife and fork - so you might say - take the first knife and the second fork off it!
Love your Haiku! Proper Job! as they say in Cornwall.
Oh yeah, and Hubby’s always right. Isn’t he?
