Haiku*

If you learn one thing
its that girls don't like creepy
you take it from me.



*The original concept for the haiku came about in an interesting way. I was tutoring this older guy in Statistics. I pointed out a girl that I thought was cute and continued to stare off into space (which happended to be in her direction). He thought I was staring at the girl incessantly for a minute and so he started murmuring, "Phil, girls don't like creepy, Phil girls don't like creepy." Then in Israel, my good friend Erez Miller took me to the Shawarma shop where I co-wrote the verse in the post below. Later that day we went to a coffee shop and the words, "Phil, girls dont like creepy" kept repeating in my mind; this was probably due to the age of a girl I was checking out earlier (see "Shawarama Shop"). I knew I wanted to incorperate that line in a haiku. And so with Erez at my side, we co-wrote the above haiku-- we're not perverts although the impressions you get from my blogs may seem otherwise.
