I was going to do Option A: Be a kid!, for this week's geek, but then I got this book in the mail, and it just screamed for a haiku review, so I'm doing:Option B: Be a poet!
Review a book you've read recently in haiku. (It doesn't need to be a poetry book you're reviewing, any book will do.) See Emilyreads for an idea of what I mean.
The book:
Legs Talk
by D.E. Boone
ages: adult, probably.
First sentence: "Some people call it shopping."
The haiku:
Captioned leg photos
Tell of a relationship.
It goes nowhere fast.
That's harder than it looks.
4 observations:
Love it :)
Great haiku. They are way harder to write than they look.
I gave you an award on my blog.
Great haiku! (I agree, they're harder than they look!) The book still kind of puzzles me, though!
Sorry, Ali, but there's really not much more to the book than the haiku suggests. It's pictures of legs with witty (sometimes) captions that tells a story of a meeting-relationship-breakup-makeup. Not terribly deep.
