Habeas Bye Ku

ReturnPath shivers
Engulfs Habeas1 like spring
Floats away from us.

(See OpinionJournal for an explanation of the “bye-ku.”2 Of course, don’t forget that Habeas started with putting a haiku into the email headers.)

Update: Maybe we’ll get a mini round-up of Habeas haiku.

Laura at Word to the Wise has one up.3

Steve at Word to the Wise has a collection of email delivery-related haiku.4

Al Iverson has also done one.5
