Just two quick comments about Ferret Hiaku.
 
1. Of COURSE it isn't like human hiaku; we are word-marionettes here.
Well, maybe not me since I haven't submitted any, but our FML town-folk
are, and the ferrets who control them will agree!  (Hey, printed words
protect the originals; there's no harm in a touch of evolution into this
weird, isolated, mutant form which might not soar but certainly bops
magnificently. ;-0)

five, five, five, five, five
seven, seven, seven, opps
five, five, five, five, five
