    It's a nice entry for this contest. I like the obese universalist one.
    Good Luck!

    hee hee hee i love this! very funny. but, i have to correct you on a few things. first of all, me being a unitarian universalist, you spell it universalist, not univeralist. also, i hate to be critical here, but a true haiku is 5-7-5. most of these are 4-7-4, or 4-6-4, or 4-6-3. just saying. as i said, hate to be critical. i try to be good... ~medusa seduca~

    playful

    ah, you're a crack-up (as my daughter says) billbard...enjoyed reading these. they are vivid images and i particularly like the way you play with words during your inspirations.

    my favourite by far is this one:

    Confucious says
    Sprinter at end of race
    Breathes in short pants


    & on that image, i'll back out of the door...
