Haiku

Here is a beautiful double haiku I have composed. The alphaxml site was
down so I must send it elsewhere.  Note the careful adherence to 17
syllables x 2, the delicate allusion to a season ("sun") and the rich
invocation a sensation ("froze").  Because of translation infelicities, I
have signalled the end of one haiku and the beginning of its partner with
"//".

A Sun technocrat named Bosak,
Feared S G M L specs had froze: "Ack-
now//ledge the past
but give ISO the blast".
That's why we all now take Prozac.

Cheers
