Brilliant Joanie! Genius! I think you're right - I'll bet JC hasn't appeared in Haiku before (I'd also bet he didn't know what it was as well!). Great, simple piece, offering us a glimpse into everyday life and making the mundane interesting.
Cheers,
Nik.

this just proves you can make anything into a Haiku all you need is the inspiration!

Spot on! Everything 'male' that absolutely eludes me is summed up.
