Haiku Run for the Money

Corporate offices

It is ninety stories high

Dome is in the clouds

 

Moon Roof views the stars

Shining through its windowpane

Will be a long night

 

 

Businessmen are mad

Executives must work late

Winning new account

 

 

Client has arrived

He expects their very best

For the lowest bid

 

 

Model must be best

Not a piece out of its place

Perfect miniature

 

He who works hardest

Pockets soon full of money

Bonus for the best

 

 

Client took his seat

He smiled a cynical smile

In the cat bird seat

 

 

Each man sings a tune

Look my model is the best

It’s in under bid

 

 

Figured in the cost

Down to the smallest detail

Mine is best of all

 

Living high on hog

Bonus in the three figures

Client has been won
