“Can you hear the rain?
It’s falling like share prices
after a buy-out!”
.
“Sorry, it’s like what?”
..
“It is like the aftermath
of a takeover.”
.
“Or it’s just rainfall”
.
“You could say that it’s just that;
but I tend not to.”
.
“I can see you don’t –
which makes these Haiku boring;
not funny at all.”
.
“Well, they might not be
quite to everyone’s taste,
but I like them… lots!”
..
“They do go on… lots!
Perhaps you should now desist..”
.
“Stop!”
.
“Yes, please.”
.
“Okay.”
