Burnt Rice
Fatigue and strain take over
Heavy eyes drift shut
Burnt rice brings back the present

Switch the timer alarm on the next time you're tired whilst cookin' rice! It will serve as a device to wake you up also as well as producing perfect rice! 🤗 😉

While I don’t think this is a haiku it has that feel to it and is a nicely sharp and sunny piece of writing.

Better than burnt popcorn, but not by much. I like this compact little reality check.
