"Her Face" haiku

Black hair frames her face
Her wondrous face glows even
In harsh fluorescents

Woman from Sticky Buns Throwdown

I was watching an episode of "Throwdown with Bobby Flay". It was the sticky bun episode and the challenged was explaining the difference between her and Bobby's sticky buns. The challenged was a Harvard alumni and a lot of the crowd were Harvard affiliated. So as she explains the difference, a woman from the crowd chimes in with "That's how they do it at Yale!", and I was so impressed with how cute she was that I wrote her this haiku:

Spectacled goddess
“That’s how they do it at Yale!”
Sung from the sidelines
