Uplink Haikus... Fear.

Indeed... Very few understand true haiku.

------------------
I am both worried and
saddened by nationwide
news of increasing rates of
anxiety and depression.

Writing haikus day and night
Playing Uplink too

We waited for it
Now it is finally here
(url="http://"http://store.ambrosiasw.com/")We can buy Uplink!(/url)

What am I doing
Writing pointless poems here
I should be playing!

I am really bad
At writing these little things
I will leave you now

------------------
In the beginning, all was NULL, or perhaps (void*).

Okay, I promised some more...

Three mil in the bank
Most stolen from other guys
Fear my hacking skills

Warning sound beeps loud
LAN admin looking for me
Better hurry up

Story in the news
Server down, perhaps for good
All because of me

Tracing a hacker
Looking for the bouncing logs
Find his home system

Bypass firewall
Upload virus, activate
Revelation spreads

If you have good Faith
There is nothing you should fear
Just be quick, or else

Click click click click click
Breaking into the mainframe
Nuts, busted again.

Carpe Aptenodytes! (Seize the Penguins!)
I feel like a genocidal maniac when emacs asks me if I want to kill 10789 characters.
Calculating in binary code is as easy as 01,10,11

Digital data,
Sent through command line console,
There in cyberspace

A job (again) to
Destroy a central mainframe.
<Yawn> ... Voice ID?

Check. Trusted System?
Check. Decrypt or Decipher?
Darn ... I forget ... Um ...

Decipher? Right? Right.
Bypass monitor et al.
Then crack the password,

Play voice, decipher.
Then move on to the console.
How far is the trace?

Plenty of time yet.
The scent of Lotus blossoms,
Cool dew on the grass ...

Ack! Where was I? Trace?
Two hundred and thirty nine
To go, Shwew, Still good.

Cd usr
Delete. cd log. delete.
Cd sys. delete.

Shutdown. Now I just
Watch while the system reboots.
Or tries to, ha ha!

Disconnect. Quick hop
To Internic and log on
As admin. Kill logs.

All done. Nothing left
To do but wait for the News
To cover the hack.

Big bucks on the way.
(Did I cover all my tracks?)
Oh, what to buy next?

Completed mission
Forgot to delete the logs
Crap, I am so screwed

And ain't this one the truth...

Yeah, really. I am so paranoid about deleting the logs. So far, knock wood, I've remembered in time.

Not bad at all, and total sympathies.

Some of your lines are a little long for a strict 5-7-5 syllable Haiku form. So if you want to tweak it, work on that. It can be =tough= squeezing into that format.

Hmm, this one isn't uplink related but I find it helps in exam situations:

Write I am a fish
Forty-Seven times and then
salute and pass out

I love red dwarf 😄
