Business Haiku
Can you inspire me with a business haiku? lol if not have you written a work related poem ever, even it was poking fun at your boss? If you dare to share I would love to see your output! I may do one myself for fun too!
Clarification added March 25, 2010:
P.s if it is about your incompetent or lazy, or bossy-boots boss, then include his/her name but just drop the vowels and replace them with stars we will NEVER guess honestly! LOL
I love audacious bodaciousness! I wish Oscar Wilde, Saki or Noel Coward had written Haiku! lol ;)
Clarification added March 25, 2010:
Okay so I quickly did these following the following basic rules:-
Haiku
5 [season (kigo)]
7 [cutting word (kireji)]
5 [final reflection]
Monday morning
life line monotony
end of life, retire
Tuesday morning
boss has two more windows
my dark shadowed eyes.
Wednesday morning
salesman or grifter?
sells same waxing dream
Thursday morning
see elicit affair
giggle or feign knowledge.
Friday morning
penpushing hard, no break
peddle pushing drive home.

I added several Haiku's here to give some inspiration for your own... Haiku Blue Pencil
The rubber fell off
The best blue pencil bare end
No more revision.
White embossed paper
Texture of hidden ridges
Awaits my blood-ink.
Purple crying hyacinth weeps
Hidden butterfly sleeping then
Falling awake fast.
Chasing away fear
White doves like kites fly
Birds avid coition.
Pleasing playful poem
Read aloud soft words squabbling
Indigestible noise.
Resist the spit sip
A single tissue petal unfurled
A lovers lip curled.
The senses displease
The cold winters breeze pretended
To be hot and burnt.

Sapphire,
Here's one I wrote about irrational exuberance in the markets.
The price went higher,
So I bought some more, for greed.
Left with empty bag.
Not particularly inspirational, but I found it amusing.

Hi Sapphire,
Not a haiku, but a poem from my first book, Cracked. Not funny either but at least it's short!
Business Meeting
Listen to evocative voices--
they rise with crude confidence
when stating their point.
Then confession ekes
out of familiar sentences
that drink might cause
a different notion.
How many voices does it take
to get consensus whether
drunk on wine or ego?

Dont like your boss?
Keep his photo next to your father's.
And introspect with retrospection.
Dont like the looks of your partner?

Dont like your car?
Sell it off and buy a used one.
