Viking Haiku
The village I raze today
Rebuilt by next spring
Job security is good
*
Mead fills mighty aurochs horns
Pork on golden plate
But no TV in Valhalla
*
Longships ply the waves
Powered by oars and arms
Oh, Evinrude, where are you?
*
Blood-eagle a grim doom done
Lungs cut out and set on back
Cheaper than lawyers.

(Evinrude being, of course, a producer of
watercraft engines!)
