A Volume Of Summertime Haiku

[This is nothing new.]

summer has arrived
with it comes a certainty
my job runs my life

people always said
adulthood was exciting
those lying bastards

california warmth
cannot make its way inside
these coffin-like walls

i should call in sick
and go get a cajun cone
but the drive's too far

only two days off
between now and labor day
wow, does working suck

my birthday in june
coincides with a meeting
yay, an anti-gift

reading about bush
in pieces i'm proofreading
wow, that guy's a douche

joyce just hacked again
that woman's falling apart
she sure smokes a lot

i spend time each day
spacing out at the office
"work" is a facade

and so now begins
a long life of summer work
guaranteed to bore
