And My contribution:

Stocks fall as petals
Many yen float downriver
A margin call sings

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.
