Haiku on Trophy/ Fine/ Angel/ Pressure

Trophy

You are my trophy
Impossible to keep you
Sitting on a shelf

Tom Jones' trophy wall
It's not impossible he
Collected knickers

The blessing of gods
An impossible trophy
For scoundrels and thieves

Fine

Fine lines from my pen
Curl themselves into letters
Words for my haiku

Nothing be finer
Than loving Carolina
Early one morning
                       
A Fine Arts degree
Sounds so much more important
Than one in science
                       
Angel

The angel of death
Not exactly best of jobs
But someone has to
                       
She was beautiful
With such an angelic smile
Nasty piece of work
                       
In Satan's workshop
The angel grinder starts up
All the tools screaming
                       
Pressure

Pressure to succeed
Goes against human nature
Fount of human ills
                       
Low pressure weather
Cyclone over the east coast
Gale force winds and rain
                       
Blood pressure rising
It's not really surprising
Certainly Can Can
