I'll steal one from Tandalayo_Scheisskopf's thread, written by Mario Batali: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.ph...

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

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!

[ET Awful]

7. Hmmm. . .

Cat poops in garden
Some DUers scream in rage
Songbirds fly away

[trackfan]

9. My lunch

I ate an apple
for lunch, and a slice of bread.
