Decapitation contest - the winner.
Sorry that this is late, guys. I forgot about the holiday weekend. I had a hard time this time around, but I'm awarding the prize to Steve for this haiku:
the first crocus of
spring pressing upwards through snow;
look out for that head.
Something about the combination of traditional haiku and hilariousness just struck me. Good one.
You'll shortly be receiving a copy of Patrick McCabe's The Butcher Boy in the mail.
