excerpts from
the banana links
paul conneally
(i)
in some ways the haiku today resembles the potato
before blight brought famine to ireland
(ii)
edible haiku are sterile mutants
new varieties cannot easily be produced by natural methods
(iii)
a haiku a day prevents a deficiency
which might increase the risk of stroke
(iv)
haiku a substitute for sweets and satisfy sugar cravings
(v)
your hands can benefit from haiku as well
(vi)
each haiku wrapped in foil and sold for a dime
'the banana links' are a dadaesque experiment
to see how truths about haiku might reveal themselves
through the manipulation of texts on or about bananas
