    FIVE DAF HAIKUS

    A master killer
    And yet a humble scorpion
    Let us learn from it.

    I have to admit
    Miss Case is quite attractive
    If one likes ladies.

    Marvellous vessel
    Except for lack of claret
    SS “Canberra”.

    Do you not agree
    It really is a small world
    I got a brudder.

    People say to me
    I have Rock Hudson’s body
    Wait till he finds out.

    Time to revive this thread...at the risk of no-one sharing that sentiment. So here are

    FIVE SKYFALL HAIKUS

    Hashima Island
    Raoul Silva's secret lair
    Sort of lacks comfort.

    Provoking James Bond
    Works best when you're destroying
    His Aston Martin.

    There's one survivor
    In smoke and flame and chaos
    Porcellain bulldog.

    No exploding pen
    A gun and a radio
    Not really Christmas.

    Bond had the feeling
    He'd always hated that place
    When Skyfall burned down.

    To live and let die
    When tomorrow never dies...
    Die another day.




    So called to duty
    My fingers on Gemma's skin
    Still cannot save me.

    Live and Let Die

    Espresso machine
    Overwhelms budget hence the
    Kananga balloon

    The World Is Not Enough

    Albert Broccoli
    Would've dubbed Denise Richards
    As in olden days.

    One shot under the table
    but the agent opposite
    returns the favour

    Any survivors
    Might not notice that Elvis
    Hasn't left the building.

    When survey answers
    Won't look good on resumes
    Sessions don't end well.



    Mission requirements
    Rarely take on more meaning
    Than death for breakfast.

    You only live twice.
    Once when you are born
    And once when you answer in the form of a question.

    Having your own brand
    makes you a marked man
    a bullit as your last stand

    Let's reach agreement
    On how many syllables
    Each line may contain.

    Diamonds Are Forever

    Connery returns
    Suffering distinct hairpiece
    For wads of money.
