Inspired by Eric GriggsThe Fatty Haiku, a challenge on Haiku Hub to write a standard haiku (5–7–5 syllables), which is a “fat” haiku as measured by how many letters it has. The haiku above weighs-in at a hefty 127 characters! 🤓

Now for a musical interlude: Big & Rich perform Save A Horse, Ride A Cowboy!
