We have a winnah. Phil was the first to work Sage's name into the
limerick, rather than using a generic rhyme of CD-craving. (I was kinda
hoping for some sort of painting/fainting/? thang, but oh well. YOu might
take note of this bias toward specificity for future reference, assuming
everyone thought this was more fun than frustrating, we might well do it
again sometime.) Thanks to everyone for playing.

Phil, send me your snaily info, will ya?

Dear Doug, thanks so much for the 'Painting'
Your kindness is that of a saintling
A web search on Sages
returned too few pages;
Her CD, I'm greatly awai(n)ting

P

Doug's idea has inspired me too
So this is what I'm going to do
I'll mail out a gift
to someone on the list
Who can send me a funny Haiku

The Kat ponders things
Seeks clarity from afar:
Limericks are fine.

Are you sure that you want a haiku?
It seems that what interests you
Is limerick-ish,
But if it's what you wish,
I will have to see what I can do.

(this may actually not get through to the list, since I'm subscribed from
another address)

Yesterday at dawn, my friend said, How long will this unconsciousness go
on? You fill yourself with the sharp pain of love, rather than its
fulfillment.

This haiku explosion, I fear,
could inundate all of us here.
But to be less entropic,
let's keep it on-topic.
