Haiku Contest

24 Comments / Just Stuff Kind of Thingies / By

I am holding a contest on my Facebook page to come up with a haiku about healthcare. I honestly don\’t care what it\’s about as long as it is clever (including llamas does not give you an advantage, though).
Head on over there and give me your best haiku! You know what is at stake here…

    Oh good… I’m glad it’s not restricted to health care reform anymore.. I don’t even understand what’s going on enough to write a haiku about it.

    here is my haiku, inspired by being in the ironic position of being a family physician without health insurance, 6 hours away from the canadian border. i call it, “we’ll always have calgon”.*
    can’t afford health care.
    and can’t move to canada.
    situation: cold.

    I don’t have a Facebook page (and have no idea how to interact with one) but I thought I could still be clever enough to come up with a haiku or two about healthcare anyway. And I’m not up for the coveted award because I already have one…but I love a challenge! So here are two, hopefully for your amusement:
    (1) I’m just a coder
    Giving providers headaches
    But not on purpose

    (2) In the hospital
    I’ve seen both perspectives
    Patient and coder

    Another coder who can’t use Facebook 🙁
    Slogging through the fluff
    Battle for best DRG
    Code the chicken scratch

    Thanks, it’s been fun reading the other Haikus 🙂
