Examples

Post Modern

Don't read this Haiku

No seriously just stop

And now it's too late

I read your haiku

Now life seems strangely better

Oh god, that's so sad

I take off from work

For three days and things get strange.

Must be status quo.

Ramses won't run now

AGDL's out of memory

So send more haikus

Classics

No squeaky chickens

The sawzall took care of that

Now there's only you.

Think for five seconds.

Be safe, use dirty handrail.

Bird Flu kills us all.

Hot coffee burns flesh,

Cold coffee poisons the soul,

At least we’re awake.

Walk down the stairway.

Think 5 before proceeding.

Take another step.

Parking lot danger.

Sign says cars may be present.

Safety is restored.

A short walk for food;

Watch for expired rodents;

Dead bat in garage!

New Vending Machines

Now full of Styrofoam blocks

Do not consume them!

From a Locked Room

Beeping Emits Constantly

Workers Turn Insane

Good Friday today

But going to work makes it bad

Suddenly I'm sick

Master the technique

Before erring foolishly.

It's five-SEVEN-five

Ok smarty pants

But if I leave the but off

You must wear the joke

Sitting on the grass

Know the local botany

Poison ivy strikes

This meeting won't end

This guy just keeps on talking

Emil is the bomb.

The fake thrusters fire

My CPU gets warmer

All else remains cold.

In the FMLab

Interminable Meetings

Participants snooze

Early in the morn

Chirpy birds waking me up

Where's my BB gun?

New light in stairwell

Extreme Caution Demanded

Burning rays blind all
