New Paradigm Oracle: "Bureaucratic Haiku" by Elizabeth A. Ochoa

Bureaucratic Haiku

Voice Sloth
   
Sounding off-death knell
To people on top-a new
King of the mountain.
Endless coffee break-
Others do your work for you
But get no reward.
Ink Godless
"Rat, tat, tat, tat, tat" 
The black typewriter spat the
Bureaucrat's decree.
"Me, accountable? 
No! You bear the brunt for all
My acts against you."
