Stink Bugs

A Haiku

Ali Canary
Stink bugs get page views
Not so much haikus, who knew?
Look at me, yoo hoo!

This haiku was inspired by my friend Jaipi Sixbear, whose stink bug article doesn't stink or even bug people. Apparently stink bugs have immense popularity in internet searches, so I may have finally written a haiku with some Google juice (or maybe Yahoo juice)! Thanks to Jaipi and thanks to all the stink bugs out there.

    You know, they are back and they are trying to get inside the house (I guess to stay warm for winter!) I tried to get one to go outside and he (or she) flew back inside! I finally got it out. cheers

    I like bugs. The stinkier the better.

    I went to a food show with my sister last week. Inside the screen in our hotel room, was a stink bug. I stopped my sister just in time before she whacked it with her flip flop. :)

    I was watching the news last night and they were talking about stink bugs. Hey, you've gotta go where the page views lead, even if it's a stink bug haiku! :D

    But Saul, then she would have had to come up with another syllable. – Great! Now I'll have to come up with SOMETHING about stink bugs. Maybe not. Cute Haiku.

    At last, a haiku that may have juice! Ew... hope it's not stink bug juice! I did a poem abt roaches once. I think it was an AC call for "Something in the Kitchen". Did one on my toaster & one on the unwelcome squatters. Didn't bring me a load of PV's though. But then, according to JP, stink bugs are a HOT, and mere cockroaches are not. Damn insect hierarchy! Your haiku is actually clever & cute, Ms Canary. Even the stinky bug pic is unique & interesting. (It should stay in a photo, though!) ; )
