Caffeine-high/ku

The rat man calleth;
He will kill the suckers dead.
With so little pain.

Rat man tells me, "This
has been going on for years.
It is not your fault."

"Oh, rat man," I say,
"I love you more than I love
sweet baby jesus."

I hang up, feeling
rescued by my gallant knight
with bait pellets and death fog.

I am becoming
enamored of the haiku--
its five-seven-five.

Year of the rat: a haiku tale and a letter (or two)

Rat man calls; he says
He needs 2 Gs to rid me
of newest tenants.

Dear Mastercard folks:
What do you mean, I can't use
twice credit limit?

Dear tenants: I need
for you to live with rodents
for just a short while.

Dear George W:
Send that f*&%ing refund check.
Your only good deed.
