The exercise: Write two haiku about: the virus. Everybody in the house is sick with colds at the moment. We had a good run through January and February. It was bound to end eventually...
@Morganna: beautiful and scientific at the same time! Great work :)
@DragonflyOracle: I think I prefer your second haiku today, though it's a close contest. The ease of transmission of a transmission is nicely captured.
@Marc: I'm pretty sure that zero lines of zero syllables isn't a haiku :-P
The virus If The Virus is No superhero, what does "Fight for your life" mean?
Every nanobot Craves life. Viral machines, too Tiny to see, kill.

Morganna - nice one :)
Dragonfly - yeah, that second one. Stupid contagiousness... huh, didn't expect that to actually be a word.
Greg - zero... I'll haiku you, you bastard :P
I like both of yours,
though the first best thanks to the
funny tale it tells
