Absolutely. The Stanley Fish reference is what put me over the edge on that one. We had to read and use Stanley Fish in my English 101 class those many moons ago.
"That Guy Before Me Was An Asshole" might not work in the competition. It's designed to be read at an open poetry reading where the person reading before you is, well, shall we say, an asshole? It's more of a performance piece, actually. You read the title of the poem, then the text, in one sort of flowing whole. The text of the poem is: "Wasn't he?"
Unfortuantely, I cannot take credit for the Thanksgiving haiku. I wish I could! It was actually penned by Jim Housell. It still amuses me, too.
