Inspired by Paul's chicken poem, i wrote a duck haiku. It has the added advantage that after it compiles it loops forever in a pointless fashion :-)

my @ducks while $raining;
study $ground until $worms{found};
cos $worms{are_yummy};

    I think the are_yummy part is a cheat. $worms==$yummy perhaps?

      yes, i thought about that. how about "cos $worms{delicious}" ? :-)

        But that doesn't give an "is" relationship.
