Turning Japanese
June 6, 2007
This week’s exercise are haikus.
Cramps!
Both triceps flexing!
Hamstring muscles near bursting!
But I’m still smiling!
Early Morning Irony
Hello there, Dawn Sky—
Your view couldn’t be better!
Forgot my glasses!
Conceited Bovines
“He’s looking at me!”
“Of course not! He’s after me!”
Ugly bloated cows!
The Chronically Depressed Tennis Ball Opines
I am all alone—
Nobody wants to use me—
I should kill myself—
The Death of a Movie Star
Dumb Lindsay Lohan—
Wrong place, wrong time, wrong species—
The croc didn’t mind—
Actually, we were given some pictures on which we based our haikus. They are:
1) Cramps! (a picture of a gymnast doing a handstand, with both legs spread-eagled)
2) Early Morning Irony (a picture of a beautiful morning skyline)
3) Conceited Bovines (a picture of two cows looking at the camera)
4) The Chronically Depressed Tennis Ball Opines (a picture of a single tennis ball on the ground)
5) The Death of a Movie Star (a picture of a swimming crocodile)
