Fire eating, art
Vodka, hot dogs, ultrasounds
Cowbell acid trip

  1. Interesting evening...though your first line has six syllables...you know that, right? Not that it matters or anything....

  3. You didn't have to change a thing. We love you and your poem just as they are. *cheers*

  4. No, no, it's better this way. Can't wait for the rest of the haikus, I'm sure they'll school mine something fierce!

  5. P.S. We should make it a rule that the title has to have more syllables in it than the actual haiku itself.
