Laundry Test
Blue jeans meet green grass
Young boys wrestling in backyard—
Washing grass-stained knees
Antagonists
Incompatible
Dentists and manicurists—
Fighting tooth and nail
Forgotten
Lifetime of knowledge
Encyclopedia facts—
Sidelined by Google
Incompatible (Haiku Series #149)
This is a fun set of poems! Thanks for the laughs!🙂

Ah yes, the encyclopedia was side-lined by Google, but isn’t it wonderful to have Siri: an instant encyclopedic response to whatever question you have in mind?

No worries. Autocorrect messes me up once in awhile, but it sure beats the former days of typewriters.

Actually, I appropriated part of the “tooth and nail” from a TV game show. We all need to share a few laughs.

It’s sad that the Encyclopedia and Dictionary are a thing of the past. Heck, most will not even read a real book anymore😟

I sort of appropriated the “tooth and nail” from a game show. Today’s students have no idea of our world back in the day toiling and researching in the university library.
