I come from a long line of haikuists. Or should that be three SHORT lines?...

Who doesn't like a 3-liner? (Quite a few of you don't, apparently.) Well, I'll have you know that many a critic has said of my work "at least it's in English" - and as for the great Stephen Fry, he once said of me "Vincent who?" Let's just say I supply the litter to the litterati [sic - but only at times] - ie: I write rubbish. But rubbish mostly inspired by the HAIKU, the 17th Century Japanese verse form consisting of 3 lines and 17 (5-7-5) syllables. (WARNING: flash photography and limericks)

What sort of music does the London Vegetable Orchestra play?

Rhythm 'n' greens? (Vincent Hefter, Daily Mail, April 9 - hereinafter

known as 'name supplied', presumably because I was in twice in that

day's paper?)

Some day soon? Hope not.

One day, maybe tomorrow,

I'll be gone - for good.

She came, she saw, she

didn't conquer, beaten by

a stupid plonker...

FOG ON THE TINE - (I can barely make it out, but) is that

a fork in the river? (Vincent Hefter, Daily Mail, April 9)

'THE TWO-TERM'INATOR

-----------------------------------------------

Twice upon a time, alas,

A certain Donald, rather crass,

Was thrust into power

To make us all cower

(For we KNEW he'd harangue & harass)
