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)

Should the town hall of rodent-infested Birmingham

now be known as the Rathaus? (After all, it IS twinned

with Leipzig)... Vincent Hefter, Daily Mail, April 22.

An ogre with no sense of humour

Who's orange (or maybe satsuma?)

I'm told won't relent

Till the world has all bent

To his will (but I hope it's a rumour)
