I have no sympathy. The inspiration is all around you. Here are a few small things from my house today: 
 
Cinnamon and cloves 
Masking tape and address book 
Where oh where are they? 
 
Searching through the house 
Children's rooms a horror zone 
Why oh why oh why? 
 
B*)+"~ F^&*(+%-ing fridge 
Broken, at room temperature 
Milk is soured again 
 
Tripping on their shoes 
Screaming as I twist and fall 
Damn these £%*"+ kids 
 
 
 
Like the title

No christmas cards today 
Perhaps he's Japanese

I warned you lot !! As the one cartoon Eskimo said to the other as they sat down by the dead beached whale  
 
It's like salted peanuts -- once you start you just can't stop !

I read my reviews 
I recite them to my wife 
She is not impressed
Last one I promise

Unimpressed wife 
Is like grandmother 
Who works in sausage factory.......................

She compares them to 
Your shining example and  
They are as nothing

After thick dense fog 
a string of novel haikus 
is welcome relief
