Quirky Haikus- I


Haikus can be fun. More fun than even proverbs. And why? Because you can make them up as well!!
It follows a 5-7-5 syllable and a three line structure.
Let me try my hand at chronicling our recent economic debacle in haikus!!

1)
Stock market is crashing
Houses closing, wall street burning
Fiddle, Bush, Fiddle

2)
Retroevolution-
Lehman Brothers now known as
The Lemmings Brothers.

3)
(From one Wamu to another)
I'm all maxed out.
Plastics dont work like before-
Declaring bankruptcy.

4)
After Mighty Bull bit the dust
And the Bearish ran for cover,
Let's go cold turkey.

(Hint! Hint! Mighty bull and Bearish stand for some of the most esteemed institutions on Wall street).
