Box Office Haiku

“There is a huge storm!
Are you canceling the show?”
Good god, not drizzle!

“We spoke on Sunday.”
No, you yelled at me Sunday.
Good luck getting seats.

the tolling of bells
ask not who the phone rings for
it ringeth for thee.

man with feet on stage
hmm, are you in show business?
get your damn feet off.

no need to admire
I do this job everyday.
keep it in your pants.

You want to bring in
Your life-sized porcelain doll?
Perhaps at child price.

my name is Raoul.
ask for me next time you call.
and good luck with that.

you gave up your right
to courtesy when you told
me I could “f off”.

be brilliant, be bold.
ask for an upgrade, when you
have second row seats.

no excuse for this
it was my fault yet again
I  picked up the phone.
