Blogger Jack Cooper joins the ranks of Dorothy Parker, John Donne and Confucius with his haiku-esque witticisms: "ROMEO AND JULIET, EXPLAINED / You cannot live for love" [Monday, February 11, 2013]; "WORDS FROM A STONE / Both terrible and vain / to have sought love // at a time one felt so little" [Wednesday, March 6, 2013].
