(in Japanese Tanka)
Chinaware arrived
With haste they want to save lives
On jet from Beijing
With earthquake-relief supplies
Eight Chinese police have died
Straight queues before us
UN rules, when serving kai
Ignore them, surely we leave
Bald eagle's fast-food rains down
Manners tanked feeds starving eyes.
Commonsense applied
No horse; then you must ride cow
Jungle medicine
On bloody folks everywhere
Real doctors needed we pray.
