A wrinkled dollar
You carefully feed it in
Rejected! No snack
The coffee is too hot
At your desk you’re distracted
Then it is too cold
Staring at my screen
It looks as if I’m working
I’m really not, though
That’s all I got right now. You?

clutter on my desk:
the turbulent aftermath
of major brainstorms
ok i have no
other burdens upon me
let us shoot the breeze
speaking of haiki
seems silly, really to end
sentences abrupt
Admitting diagnosis hailu! (true stoy)
Sir, there’s a problem
Pooping in the urinal
Is frowned upon here
Ailment:
passing stool via penis
Inspired by the cell phone/bathroom thread I penned.
The cell phone talker
Works to hide sounds of peeing
Oops! Fart in next stall.
Haiku threads are great
You dopers are too funny
Never let one sink
I don’t see the point.

I have got to do some work!
Maybe tomorrow.

This is my first post
on The Straight Dope Message Board.
How do you like it?
Here’s another one:
Skip dead fish across
the Mississippi River.
Better than flat rocks!

A novel concept
getting paid. inflow equals
outflow? Incroyable!
That was a bad one
A good haiku has meter
and one thought per line
Bureaucratic woes.
Why can’t they send me the specs?
Then they’d get their files.
I had to redeem myself from my earlier attempt.
Work - can’t concentrate.
Much more fun surfing the Dope.
Threads need attention!
Haiku? Sure, why not?
Some art thrives on restrictions
Like syllable counts.
Almost lunchtime now
Maybe get some fine sushi
Fitting for this thread.
But then, back to work
The Straight Dope is such a sweet
Distraction, I’ve found!
Seems this thread is slow.
Why won’t Dopers come and play?
Must be trapped at work.
You should spell the word
“Triskaidekaphobia”

Tonight brings an end
To Idol speculation.
Will Blake win? Or Sparks?
Fall lineup features
Show starring Geico cavemen.
Neanderthal, man!
