Why is Anarchy Bunny a "stuffed lupine"??
Latin: lupus = Wolf; lepus = Hare
Also, how weird did it feel to write "Christopher"?

Re: Haiku Contest 2011: Discussion Thread
>.< Okay, this is why I shouldn't attempt to enter a constest at 4am. My brain was thinking en Français, and the French word for rabbit is lapin... very close to lupine. You're absolutely right, I'll fix that here.
And yes, it was strange to write my own proper name in a Haiku, but I prefer to live a bit vicariously through School Bites' Christopher since he's lucky enough to have someone like Cherri. ;)

I'm quite frankly amazed that my lazy POS got any votes, let alone three.

I honestly thought Don's was better. Which is why I'm shocked. He managed to get three haiku and form them together into one poem. That's awesome.

Okay, kidding. ;) But thanks a million for the kind words.
If you are interested, Bard's corner is the thread for more of my stuff, mostly on the first ten pages or so.
