Let's lighten things up with a Haiku thread!
CPR and Prayer
Are bad topics in the lounge
And forget tofu!

the shrimp on the grill
bush denies the terra's heat
crustaceans cannot

Those who write haiku
Have too much time on their hands
Bar freakout is here

5. reprise: OREO HAIKU
twist apart to scrape your teeth
crunch the cookie halves
dip in milk but do not drop

dunk a cookie whole
shove it in your mouth and chew
chug some milk after

stand on scale and see
what havoc oreos have wrought
jeans no longer fit

make oreos disappear
do not follow down toilet
no more oreos



by the way -- yours rocks -- I love it!

I ate an apple

I am still hungry.
