(Haiku)^2

Andrew got me thinking about Haikus, and I wondered if I could take them into the second dimension. So, here, for the pleasure of the scientific community, I present you a working model of a haikubox:

Engineering work . Though the pay is somewhat nice . . . The hours are crap.
From dawn to dusk it's endless . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . How can I spend all this time
Maybe I should teach? . Rowdy kids can't be worse than . Fixing lines of code?


See, with the haikubox, you get four haikus, held together lightly by covalent bonds. This model is slightly unstable, but should last for at least a few days.

Now, I ask of you, the scientific community, this: Is it possible to extract the haiku into the third dimension? Can a haikube actuall exist in the bounds of our verbal laws as we know them???
