Evil genius indeed

I've recently been checking out the Evil Genius Chronicles podcast, where host Dave Slusher also stays active on a blog that predates the audio feed. Today he submits a haiku that is very cool:

I trust you fully
With my life, with everything
Still — I cut the cards

Most haikus are fun but, as poetry/art, fairly "eh." This one packs great insight into the human condition into that restrictive 5-7-5 box. I'm extremely impressed.

Reminds me of all the different words that the Inuit supposedly have for "friend" to capture the nuances of the relationship.

There was one "You are my friend but I would not go seal hunting with you."
