What a clever poem. Is that true? The sanitary arrangements, I mean? How interesting.

I think that if we do haiku it really ought to be 5 7 5, because if it's free form, we have to take responsibility, if you know what I mean. Free form, I'd have no excuse for such a thing as this:

Where are my damn shoes
I have no patience for this
O yuck, dental floss

Hmmm, now that one I don't like as much. The internal rhyme is formulaic.

I'm going to try a haiku from the NY Times sentence I just posted to E. A little later today. Want to try?
