The exercise:

Write two haiku about: feathers.

Windows is having one of its little moments this morning, where when you click on things it forgets what that means and sits there doing nothing. It continually astonishes me that an operating system so unfit for purpose actually has a price attached to it -- you'd think they'd struggle to give it away really....

Anyway, feathers :) Which I'm definitely not spitting after wrestling with this OS.

Feathers
Hawk rides high thermals,
Hunting spring deer with sharp eyes.
Feathered death descends.

-----
He's tarred and feathered;
Warm in winter, but still shame
Sticks firmer than tar.

Greg - ugh, I hear you. I had to upload my insulin pump data at work this week because it refused to work with my laptop at home. For no bloody reason I could discern.

Anyway. Feathers!

Really like 'Feathered death descends' and points of view offered in the second and third lines of your second haiku. Well done this week!
