Jalapeño Haiku

Had the jalapeño actually grown beyond this wimpy, scrawny, puny, point, then this would be a post filled with recipes for salsas, and tapenades, and zesty quesadillas, and maybe even some stuffed jalapeño poppers too. But it's not, because the damn pepper is stuck. And, lacking any other constructive way to vent my frustration at the Jalapeño Plant that refuses to grow, I have decided to share my feelings in a poem...



I built up my hopes,
was told it would grow, now to
be disappointed.

Gone are sweet dreams of
green sauces and things, taco
night is so cancelled.
