Acrostic: An arm and a leg

AN ARM AND A LEG

Always consider the cost
Never pay too much

Arms are not cheap
Right now two for
More will be later

A leg costs less
Now at half price
Don't pay to much

Arm and a leg

Lady please use cash
Eye love your limbs
Give 'em to me

Two o'clock ~ Haiku Bones


[large picture] [extra large]

Afternoon

It's two o'clock and
all is well — dog's in her bed
it's time for our nap

- - - - - - -

It's two o'clock on
long hot summer afternoon
time for nature's nap

One Single Impression: Avatar



My Avatar

Ugly and so scrawny
smirks at me from afar,
my avatar hates me;
I hate my avatar.

What did he do to me
that gets me so upset?
The others are pretty
yet here's my ugly pet.

And now I'm asking you
what is your opinion;
for you would he do?
I'd rather an onion.

Beauty running skin deep
but no curves here to love,
angles and bony knees.
My own is far above.

Acrostic: Technology

T E C H N O L O G Y

Time is 12 o'clock
Everything is blinking
Colon eyes are staring
Home goes on anyway
Nobody set the VCR
Only time won't tell
Lonely sights of trouble
Our twelve o'clock display
Genius needed to set
Youngsters soon will come
