He'll Be Back

first-ever cyborg
felt winter's chill, laid back down,
and switched himself off.

    Thereby showing his intelligence. Though it is the summer swelter which makes me yearn to flick the switch.

    If he heard the wind we have this morning, then that was a wise choice...

    With the negative degrees where I live, I'd like to switch myself off.

    Yes, hibernating sounds so good. Hope his on switch doesn't freeze in place.

    Fun! In my head I can picture your Beorn in the USA visual, except the bear now has half a metal skull with one eye a glinting red lens...

    I always like your haikus, John. Hopefully the Cyborg has some way of switching himself back on in the spring!

    Hey, John. Just wanted to thank you for your review of Ender's Game on goodreads.com. I've hated that book for 10 years, but was never able to articulate why.

    I don't blame him. It'll be nice to wake up when it's spring.
