...but instead I am noodling science haikus to enter in the Science Creative Quarterly’s most exceptional, illustrious, splendiferous haiku phylogeny project. Hey, beats trying to untangle the beginning of the tape roll and scooting the cat out of empty boxes.
What do you think? Haiku has 5-7-5 syllables over three lines.
BRAIN BUSTER
Avogadro’s rule
So incomprehensible
But not by Perrin
QUICK! RUN AWAY!
Malacology
Means operculum closes
When scientist peeks
NEW AGE CONVERSION
Photosynthesis
Breathe, let in the oxygen.
Now, let in the light.
AGROUND
Coral, grows real slow
Beautiful colors rising high
Boat prop, the end comes so quick
