yahaiku (and yalyrics) answers. Not sure if this'll be fun, but here's the rules. Pick a random question from the front page of Yahoo answers and answer it here in the form of a haiku or song lyric.
At first egg was afraid...
It was petrified,
Kept thinking it could never hatch
without you by its side.
But then it spent so many nights
thinking how you did it wrong,
And it grew strong
And it learned how to get along.
It took all the strength egg had
not to fall to hell,
kept trying hard to mend
the pieces of its broken shell;
and egg spent oh so many nights
just feeling sorry for its yolk.
It used to cry
But now it holds its beak up high...
and you see egg,
somebody new
it's not that chained up little chick
still in love with you.
and so you felt like dropping egg
and just expect it to be hatched
and now egg's saving all its loving
while it's still somewhat attached.
Go on now, go walk out the door,
just turn around now
'cause you're not welcome anymore;
weren't you the one who tried to hurt egg with goodbye?
Did you think egg's shell would crumble,
Did you think it'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not egg!
Egg will survive. (hey-hey)
