Pimp My Walker
The Official book of Old Age Haiku
by: Mike Slosberg






 
I've a pacemaker
But whenever I sneeze hard
The channel changes.

And so it goes. Old Age really sucks, and one has to be philosophical and poetic to survive. Humor is the only defense, the alchemy which can magically turn tragedy into comedy. Pimp My Walker is brimming with 60 Haiku poems that celebrate the cardinal aspects of growing old, softened only with hilariously appropriate illustrations.

Consider your high-maintenance daughter.

Paid for her braces,
Bat Mitzvah and huge wedding.
Will divorce be next?

and that slowly diminishing libido?

I can remember
When sex was better than food
Now vice is versa


Mike Slosberg is an ageing novelist, playwright and cartoonist. This is his fourth published book. Mike writes Haiku instead of doing crosswords, putting boats in bottles, and lamenting his age.
