Haikus in Haiku

Lettuce, for all it's majesty and vitamin content, can get a little mundane. Claire and I were sitting on our crates this morning, pulling weeds out of a row of red romaine when inspiration struck us and we launched our poetry careers. These are some of the masterpieces that came to be this morning at 7am in a field of lettuce...

Oh! Arugula 
your green majesty knows no bounds
Spice. I dream of you

Assumption: healthy
So much lettuce. But we eat
hot dogs. twice. daily

Angry come morning
but your love lights up my life
Claire Fahrner, sweet gem

Fuel tank and blow torch
Flame weeding, really badass
but it's just heavy...

Claire, wisdom abound
"Don't fret. Bitches aint shit doe"
Pia is wary

If you burn your leg
And get a stupid tattoo
Never give advice

Asian boss lady
Loving. But stay well behaved....
Or "SO DISRESPECT!!!"
