Haiku: Winter coming
Five minutes of sun
The leaves blow across the street
And now it is night

My poetry is usually terrible. It's so bad that an English professor questioned why I was attending his poetry class. I tried to save face and told him I was majoring in English with an emphasis on technical writing- I was just taking his class as an elective. :)

I wouldn't mind the Ohio winters so much if I didn't have to get out and drive and unload trailers in it. It's my least favorite season.
