Hey You Haiku by Nora Sawyer

Pictures to come.
There's this guy I always see on the 71 (Haight St.) bus. He looks just like Eddie Murphy in a fat suit. Every morning, it's so hard not to stare. Is it Eddie Murphy? Have I jumped to an alternate universe?
Anyway, this morning I wrote him a haiku. I didn't take his picture (if someone thought I looked like, say, Gwennyth Paltrow in a fat suit, I wouldn't want them posting *my* picture on the internets). But I did leave a post-it on the seat for him.
The text:
Seventy-one bus
You look like Eddie Murphy,
Nutty Professor.
