Barry questioned my vegetability. And that rankles. So, naturally I composed this haiku, in the little-known meter of the Ba'hai sectarian ancient style. Hope you like it. Learn it. Teach it. Live it:
Once a vegetable
Twice a vegetable,
Nice a vegetable.
Eat a meatable,
So defeatable.
Eat a greenable,
So amenable.
Harvest parsley,
Munching sparsely
Pluck some oregano
Go where you’re gonna go
Chop potato
Losing weight, oh
Once a vegetable
Never returnable.
