Aloft on my debt
Spelunking the clouds of dreams
Borne on plastic wings

Doc, that was quite stylish. Who knew those old credit card commercials were unrevealed Japanese poetry?

IMHO, you and snowdog are tied for lyricism, but Doc's is totally awesome for applying MC's slogan to AmEx. There's something deeply satisfying about the natural foiling of advertiser's arbitrary brand associations. :)

Card or check kiting
Funds stolen by sharks and thieves
Paper or plastic?

East meets West: A Haiku Quatrain
Live above your means
spend more than you can afford
then tax me to pay.
Live within my means
do not borrow, do not lend
struggling each day.
It's legalized theft
make me pay for your excess
I get screwed two times.
When I get fed up
do not be surprised at all
when I come for mine.

I like DOC AL's for the reason KEVIN[0] stated.
I like DR. BOB's, too. A variation:
Fiat currency
Flying high on borrowed time
When wind stops we're screwed

HEY JOHN
I'm glad you liked them. Most of the time this stuff just comes to me out of the blue without a lot of effort.
