What's wrong with that? Don't knock it
until you've tried it.

Until you’ve tried it
don’t jump into the water.
You may get surprised.

Post modern haiku,

Explain what it means.

Explain what it means
is not hard. Climb up two floors,
there, good example.

Condescension, two floors up.
Looking down, smiling.

A thought impaled him.

his like rotten eggs.

Great opening lines
are wasted by weak endings -
Tiger’s head, snake’s tail.
