This Boy

Jim and I amuse ourselves in many ways.  One of the ways that we like to do this is by giving the other person a challenge to create a story or poem that has to include specific things.  For example, last night, I asked Jim to come up with a fictional robot romance story.  Needless to say, the story isn't going to make it onto the New York Times Best Seller list, but it was pretty funny listening to him describe the robot:

Jim: Once upon a time, there was a lady robot.
Me: What did she look like?
Jim: Uhm, she was gray and she had a bow on her head.
Me: On her head?  How did it stay on there?
Jim: It's glued on there.
Me: Well, that sounds painful.

Today, in the spirit of doing something a little out of the ordinary, I've decided to do something I haven't done since like the 5th grade: write a poem.  But not just any poem, a Haiku inspired by the series of pictures below.  So, without further ado, here's my Haiku entitled This Boy:

it is easy to
see that he is very cute
but really messy
