For the Teabag in All of Us

Not that kind of teabag. Don't be gross.

If I go about this properly, the blog will (eventually) explain enough about me, so let me just explain the blog, or at least the title of it, here:

SPAM haiku

Did you know there is a whole website dedicated to this? Well actually I just googled it and apparently the website is no longer but there are still plenty of these weird little poems dedicated to canned meat by-product. Anyway, I was unpacking the last of Chulo's boxes this weekend, and ...

Unpacking boxes
Found my boyfriend's can of spam
Gross little surprise

Is he serious?
He says it's hurricane food
I think it's yucky

I have never had spam...I never knew spam existed until I moved here. Spam scares me.

Nice Haiku, though :)

Did I tell you I once won a Haiku contest in Argentina? Hehehe.

Sass -- I'm not sure I ever anticipate being desperate enough... and the whole thing with frying? if it's hurricane food, then I don't spose we'd have any way to fry it... so ... eh-eh

hageltoast -- welcome and thanks for your comment! He also eats corned beef hash... should I worry?

Butt -- Haiku is fun...and I've never had spam either. I'd like to keep it that way!

Dzer -- I'm dubious that spam rocks anything. But hey, to each cute bald guy his own! -s-

Cress -- Remember 50 First Dates? There was spam at that hawaiian diner too! It must be true! Eeew!

Terry -- He's full of surprises. Including the dozen roses he brought home for me tonight. Awww -s-

Are you serious? SPAM=Spiced Ham. What's wrong with that? And yes, I avoided commenting because of the meme.

Spam. Isn't that the greasy lunch meat that has a film of gel around it? Who would eat this stuff? It doesn't sit well with me. But to write poetry about it? Hmm...

And why did you Google this? (haha)

Hagel/Anon -- I must disagree... I think corned beef hash is equivalent to dog food. In fact, on hell night, my sorority sisters fed us lowly pledges corned beef hash and had us believing it WAS dog food! Ew.

cmhl -- Bravo!

Deb -- Who would eat this stuff? That is precisely my question. And I Googled it because I was making the statement that there was a website dedicated to it, and I know that there WAS (don't ask me why I knew this)a website but wasn't sure that it still existed. It doesn't. I'm just precise that way.
