The Server Room Is Beeping
Shut Down Everything
Air Conditioner Failure

And all work grinds to a halt
Those servers are hot
Nothing caught on fire, this time

I'm glad for the lack of the fire
Of such inanities you not only tire
But such problems present a fate most dire.

Could be worse. You could've had people playing silly buggers with pellet guns and knocking out one of the fire sprinkler sensors in the server room, thereby hosing all the servers, causing an evacuation of the entire building, and summoning the fire department (which proceeded to hand one of the execs his arse on a platter when the exec tried to get the employees on the unaffected floors to go back inside).

(Happened to a friend of mine, not me. All true.)

Curious is the counting | When A/C acceeds to weather.
The song-slicer's fragmentary phrases | Come in count 7, 5, 7 of sound segments.
The familiar form of the Rising Sun? | Haiku have 5, 7, 5 on only.

Haiku are shorter
than the two verses I wrote
Less than eighteen Syl

Haiku also should
have something about seasons
Servers die in Fall

Once upon a time
Happily Ever After
All Haiku to me

Nothing caught on fire, this time

I'm thinking that's a good thing.
