Bashō says something unhelpful
Bad Haiku
Horrible poetry for the digital age

death from the skyways
come crashing in, did someone
not let it happen?

death on high, crashing
down, did someone not stop the
Oklahoma bomb?

death in the market,
but don't evacuate! It
just knocked the top off.

what corporate corpse
had the arrogance to fall
under its own weight?

I am climbing through
the debris, I am wringing
my hands, I'm sobbing

I don't want to hear
why they did it, I don't care.
But to hate "towelheads",

is robbing us of
our freedom, we assist
terror in the end.

From the bottomless pit.
