I thought I had read this before, but don't seem to have commented - so congrats, Jan. Very creative rhyme choice - I don't think I have ever seen the word fetor in a poem :)

Hey, Jan: The possibilities for this one are legion: Bet Peter was never 'de-feet-ed.' But he knew the agony of 'de-feet.' On and on and on, I'm sure...Love the concept! Congrats on your placement in the contest. Competition sure is fierce with these haikus! Good job! :) gw
