Tao of Certification

Tao of Certification- a Study in Haiku

B. Poindexter, 6/98

1.
Report is in hand
Approval will be yours
Whoa there- not so fast

2.
In proportion to
The mass of slaughtered trees
Shall your chances be

3.
E-mail promptly is ignored
Phone calls go unanswered
Oh yes, you will wait

4.
Approval granted
Sleepy eyelids stretch apart
'tis but a dream

5.
Am away from my desk
Or out of the office
Tax dollars well spent

6.
Rising to the sky
In stacks on pallets wooden
No, you will not ship

8.
You will get approval yet
Yes, maybe by tomorrow
Elvis on a mini-bike

9.
Sun, moon, stars, and rain
Summer stretches into Fall
Insanity is yours

10.
Audacity encore
Yes, you will thank them
and then ask for more
