Haiku of the Week (2)

The Glorious Nsima

Yes, yes nsima,
Thick, white, flavorless carb paste,
Two year food baby.

Haiku of the Week

Like I've said before, you've got to learn to laugh things off and laugh at yourself if you're going to survive living here. So, I've decided that writing haikus is a positive method of dealing with my stress and to see humor in my everyday life. That being said, I'm going to attempt to write a haiku every week for the next 19 or so months, for your reading pleasure and for my mental health.


Foods of Malawi

Mbewa, so good,
Baby birds are also good,
Diarrhea, not good.
