A/N More haiku for you! Read and Review! This is my shoe! Okay, I'm not crazy really. The haiku has gone to my head. By the way, this is something I've been wanting to do for ages, and it is loosely based on a book and website by the name of 'Haiku Mama". It's funny. Check it out.

He was barely gone

When another face appeared

Needing my guidance


"What is it, Henry?"

More Lab Rats in my office –

Becoming a trend


"I'm totally swamped..."

Sighs deep, emphasising point

"I need help, Boss."


"I can loan you Greg.

Or perhaps the day-shift guy,

Whatever his name."


"It's just not enough.

A vacation would be nice

And a pay rise, too"


He must be dreaming.

"It's not always this hectic

Patience, Grasshopper."


He sat it the chair

Under-eye-bags shown by lamp

Poor, tired Lab Rat.


"Toxicology:

It isn't all fun and games,

But I wouldn't switch."


"Always good to know

Believe it or not, Lab Rats

Are hard to come by."


"Thanks for your time, Gris.

I guess a break was needed.

I feel better now."


He needed to vent

My hourly rate too low –

I counsel for free.


He smiled, and then left

And I was alone again,

To do my crossword


More interruptions?

They must think I'm not busy

But what do they know?
