I was thinking that a good use for the now ubiquitous web haiku would be a collection of 404 haikus. Presently, if you request a page on this site that does not exist, you see this lame page (404 is the error code for page not found.) Wouldn't it be more interesting if you were served up a random 404esqe Haiku instead? Maybe something like:
Many grains of sand
can be hidden on the beach
you look in vain here
...only better. Anyone feel inspired?
youve been led astray
nothing to see here people
so keep it moving
that for which you seek
is a goal not to be reached
at least on these shores
where does the time go
when all the (de)signs say closed
lets never go home
404, oh well
now youre down in dotcom hell
discode inferno
you have lost your way
this place has no use for faith
your truth lies elsewhere
Forget the foreign poetry; try a Triad:
Three things which are not here:
What you want;
What you need;
What you came for...
