Friday is Haiku Day, Part II

I challenge my fellow Baylor bloggers, and commenters, to make Friday haiku day. My efforts for this week relate to my pending visit to Common Grounds, where I shall partake of coffee and some conversation with an actual professional philosopher. That is the kind of thing you can do as a professor. But first, the goods:

Dancing Barista,
You are shakin', not stirred;
Yes, please add some foam!

Comments:
Seen only one time
Imagination Figment
She dances in your mind
 
Stirred as two beats is kinda far fetched unless there's an é,to make it a stir-red.
 
Professors have changed.
Not what they used to be, not
professorial
 
Professorial
A word you seem to define
inaccessible?
 
8:38--

I think you have six syllables in the first line. You will be graded down one full letter grade for the quarter, and I need a memo by 8 am.
 
My changed has one syl
I guess you must talk funny
Or maybe it's me.

No memo for me.
Associates can write those.
Fond thoughts of Muldrow.

-- 8:38

Oh, and

Professorial
Is not always a virtue
Nor always a vice.
 
Puerto Rican law
-sitting by designation-
a bankruptcy case =(
 
Barrister today
If I hear bad arguments
They get a memo
 
O Fearsome Memo,
Why, why do you haunt me so
As Raven for Poe.
 
I should be billing
I like this haiku stuff
Boss says break over
 
8:33 "She dances in your mind" = 6


12:15 "I like this haiku stuff" = 6
 
DRAT.

Even so, I think "dances" can be a one beat word...

Haikuists count beats, not syllables.

But if you disagree, drop the "she," make it

Seen only one time
Imagination Figment
Dances in your mind

I never could count anyway. Hence the law degree instead of MBA School
 
O Horrid Memo
I'd rather write a Haiku
Anything but you.
 
Friday's PC2 lesson:

Professor Counseller thinks we are all plotting to steal his Crawford powerpoint. Then we want to sell that powerpoint presentation to those people who want to present it to a CLE or we ourselves want to hold onto that powerpoint until we are experienced enough attorneys to be asked to do a CLE and hope that our topic is Crawford.

Did anyone feel as though when WJC was making his powerpoint, cloud background and all, he was rubbing his hands saying "My Precious" over and over...
 
I would have stolen that powerpoint in a second. You could get a lot of money on the black market for that. Citizens of unstable former communist states are thirsting for quality powerpoint presentations.
 
Testosterone rules
All you guys on this blog, no?
Law is just cover.
