Corporate Haikus
Fields of white daisies
Now stained by fresh blood
Our offsite meeting has failed.
Heat shimmers from the cars
Around my parking place;
They all want my job.
Ponderous, the glacial ice
Flows still faster than
My corporation.
Savor a deadline;
it is merely an excuse
to stay up all night.
A marketing bird!
He tells me, tells me, and then
tells me what he told me.
Sunset is never
ensnared in a choice between
cost and quality.
