The k.d. lang paradox

K.d. Lang goes to
my gym. Oops, it's just a dude
with the same haircut.

True story.

By itself, the above haiku isn't very significant but I thought it blog-worthy because it was the most spontaneous piece of poetry I have ever written. Those words just fell into my head and I quickly realized that it could fit the 5-7-5 pattern by swapping a word or two. Ta-da! Damn, I'm good.

Anyway, the dude really did look like a slimmer, younger k.d. Lang. That being said, I was left with a peculiar paradox. Does this dude look like a lady? "Yes," is my first impression. Hence, I immediately likened him to the female-ish singer.

However, the more I think about it the more I want to say, "No, dude look-a-like-a mang." Here's how I figure:

This guy looks like k.d. Lang.
K.d. Lang has no discernible female features.
Consequently, k.d. Lang look-a-like-a mang.
Ergo, this guy look-a-like-a mang.

QED, bitches.
