My Favorite 10 Brain and Mind Haikus

Haikus are easy/ But sometimes they don't make sense/ Refrigerator

Solve the big questions:/ How do I know when I know?/ Who knows the knower?

Playing music feeds/ my soul while reading music/ nurtures my old brain.

- Mark shares his experience with our teasers:

I thought I did well/ Then I reviewed my answers/ I am retard

- Steve, the environmentalist, requests:

Neuroplastic good./ Plastic, though lasts forever./ Always recycle!

- Lloyd, the stressed-out, volunteers:

I thought so damn Hard./ My brain built lots of pressure./ I farted out loud.

the noon hour portends/ a burrito with salsa/ brightening my tongue

This was fun, and no,/ I don't intend to haiku./ Thanks for posting it
