turn on, hot and hiss
press out those wrinkles
is it a chore?
(Who really does iron their clothes anymore? I did learn to iron clothes from my mom who always said one must be able to do many things and ironing clothes is one thing one must know or something like that. Is ironing a chore? There will be times that one must use this appliance for you may need a shirt or a pair of pants that have a few wrinkles in them and you will want to make a good impression. I do think as this being a chore for it could be a good workout.) Please comment.

Various circle designs
This design that I titled 'Various Circle Designs' uses once again shades of blues and greens. I also used pink, orange, purple to allow for some contrast. There were mainly circles but there were also small squares and ovals and cones. Again, if you don't mind, please share your impressions and this piece.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Fear of a Black Hat
Fear of a Black Hat, a Rusty Cundieff film, is one of my all-time favorite movies when I need to laugh. We’re talking Kentucky-Fried Movie territory. You want the uncut version, otherwise you don’t get the Ice Froggy Frog video (below) at the beginning or the discussion about artistic integrity in Cleveland. I own the cut version (😥)—couldn’t find the uncut version at that time, no extra money for it right now, but you aren’t me, so buy the uncut version.

Ironing is such a boring chore! Love your use of the word "hiss" in your haiku - it's so descriptive that your reader can actually hear it!
Ugh, I absolutely despise ironing. Lol. Loved your Haiku!
