My friends, remember the good old days on Archinect where our beloved haiku thread grew to an incredible length?
We need a new one here, and this is it. I won't be satisfied until virtually ever topic known to man has been covered in eloquent 5-7-5 format. Yah, that's right, I expect to see no less than 825 replies by 5: p.m. Friday September 23.
Just as a reminder, some of the more popular topics in the world today that you may write a haiku about include:
Sex, money, cars, landscaping, working, comedy, Internets, hurricanes, Bush hating, John Roberts, painting, office pranks, motorcycle wheelies that seem to last forever, problems sending email, portfilios, moronic professors, porcupines, and silk panties.
Let the games begin!

true story above
kind of sad because the cat
will be euthenized
wife is real upset
she's had the cat since college
it's name is jo-jo
glad to see it go
always hisses at people
real anti-social
never liked me much
bites when I try to pet it
always sweet to wife
must be the cookies
she bribes her with all the time
so she purrs loudly
she's very upset
wants to go to vet's office
buy I say no way
don't have the money
been saving for trip to france
no setbacks at all!

Stephen King's book “ITâ€
has a fat kid character
he hates poetry
But haiku, oh yes!
The rules of words in structure
appeals to his mind
The cute red-haired girl
appeals to his young boy heart
Writes a secret poem
About her red hair
burning fire in his soul
Leaves for her to find
That fat kid grew up
He became an architect
Sounds like Manteno

the boss standing there
it is roughly noon
i am so in trouble now
my wife will beat me
he took my train card
i will have to walk home now
life is sucking hard
i keep on walking
i can not call for a ride
peace is not at home
she wont be happy
it is the third job this year
she cannot find out
a car honks at me
i get hit with a bottle
wrong hood to be white
run your wallet boy
it does not say bad mother
i am broke as fuck
rent is due again
in a nice new apartment
the wife will hate me
the key gets turned
it will be home for three days
she left me a note
she has some big news
school finally took her in
tuition cometh
bills up to my ears
dollar signs weigh down on me
plastic owns me now
now she frolics in
at least there is no boyfriend
seeing me she stops
what did you do now
her dreams shattering to dust
the phone is ringing
can we speek to mr
the phone gets handed over
a studio calls
can you start soon sir
you can wear all your blue jeans

on bus this morning
see black and white schnouzer dog
crouched and taking poop
owner standing by
at the ready with baggie
staring at dog's butt
looking around bus
other people are staring
do they enjoy it?
bus continues on
I lose the good view I had
dog was almost done
keep thinking about
the owner picking up poop
humiliating
then got to thinking
with a new camera phone
and a little stealth
could take a picture
of God's magnificent work
doing it's business
it's an incentive
to go and buy a RAZR
by Motorola
been debating now
for a few weeks and reading
reviews of the phone
still undecided
it's fashion over function
the naysayers say
slow OS on phone
VGA only photos
no megapixel
new ones coming soon
there's a non flip-phone RAZR
nice and thin and cool
might hold out for it
but it will be expensive
for quite a while
isn't it funny
how watching a dog go poop
stimulates the mind
