Two dozen lobsters broke out of their crate in Boston, Massachusetts today, and led marine police on an hour-long chase through city streets. Apparently, five of the crustaceans teamed up to steer, brake, accelerate, shift gears, and signal while operating a stolen lobster truck. The chase ended when the decapods crashed into the bay, and made a clean getaway.

in that box I stole
but nine!
how will I feed them?
the supply of little sisters
will soon be exhausted
and they're too small
for adults
