Some languages
Are nonconfigurative,
Like Guugu, Yimidhiir

Although no language
Known today uses object,
Subject and then verb.

Subject, object, verb,
Can be ordered in six ways,
Mathematically.

I should be working
But I am writing Haiku

Voles cannot fly home
a quadruped that eats grass
but perhaps gulls can

I wonder what would
Chage if we all spoke in haiku
Red buffalo grass

Hiaku annoys me
But I can't stop writing it
Oh, why, why, Bob, why?

today is calmed
i know that this will not last
hell will be back soon!!!

Golden Gate is in
Arches are soooo yesterday
Bring on da Mickey

Just imagine red
Then you will be angrier

holiday of a lifetime
for the unlucky

Rumbling throttle begs
a late night cruise through the streets
counting this week's stress
