Peep Haiku

Poetry and Peeps

by Mike Durrett
for About.com

The sugar rush of Easter candy continues all year long, thanks to the famous Peeps marshmallow chicks, bunnies, and other evolutionary sweeties. To celebrate, the ancient art of Peep Haiku moves into the 21st century with a collection of gummy poetry, like these:
"Sugar coma gleams
in the beady waxen eyes
nothing can dissolve"

"Up on the top shelf
reached only by wobbly chair-
they wait, tempting me"

"That perfect staleness
Sugar crunch and chewy mush
Party in your mouth!"
