If you want to win a piece of SR 520’s ramps to nowhere, the state is asking for your haiku submissions.

Here are Dori’s:

Huge Taxdollar waste
In Overruns and mistakes
Hey!!! Let’s write poems!!!

Tax dollars? Billions
But in exchange for your cash
Have a concrete chunk

Government morons
Think their inept management’s
Offset by haiku

Submissions from listeners:

Beth in Tacoma writes:

Seattle Haiku
True skill or depth not needed
Bad,great-all the same

Mike writes:

Let’s do a contest!
O.K. What kind of contest?
What would Dori do?
