Last night, it seemed that plenary would never end (although, it did, finally, around 11pm). We seemed to continue to get caught in parliamentary circles: never-ending amending, motioning and calling for the question. Back at the press tables, we had to keep asking each other, "What in the world are we doing now?"

Apparently some of the YAADs were getting a little frustrated by some of the procedures as well, and some started putting together some haikus in honor of the General Assembly and our wonderful "process." Through the wonders of technology, the haikus slowly started to leak out to some of us, and I wanted to share with you a couple of my favorite YAAD Haikus:

The world is ending.
Presbyterians don't know.
Stuck in plenary.

Stop amending things,
please just trust the committee,
my soul is dying.

Reactionary Haiku that breaks the rules

YADs love complaining
This is why they get no vote
What kind of YA wants to be a D anyway?
