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???

i like it, i like it. it clearly brings to mind images of a cluttered workbench in a dark room, spotlit by a bright twisty-neck lamp. (oh, i just got the haikube joke.) i'll work on my own 2d-haiku for the rest of the day. maybe i'll report back later.
That was four times as moving as a normal haiku.
The real question is, is humanity capable of handling a Haikube? I don't know.
