Nice. Love alligators; love implying a connection between
alligators and wives.

I feel the same way about titling a haiku.
And yes, it's a forth line, so it pretty much screws things up.
(Which, as always, might be a good reason to do it anyway.)
I've seen these things done on boards where post formats
require titles:
1. Use the name of the season to which the haiku refers.
(spring, summer, autumn, winter, new year)
2. Use the actual seasonal word/phrase from the haiku.
(mud, sweat, pumpkin, house fire, loosing weight)
3. Use the first line of the haiku.
