Java Haiku

[Not forwarded from anywhere -- this is my own stuff, hopefully destined for Internet memehood]

I had a burst of inspiration this morning and composed five Java haikus before coming in to work. Think of them as an early Xmas present. If any of you come up with any more, I'd love to see them -- maybe I'll set up a web page for them all.


I got an Object
I was sure it was a Point
ClassCastException


Garbage collection
The unused objects are gone --
Knew you wouldn't mind


AWT
Peers come from some secret place
So mysterious


Server wants linefeeds
But println just sends CR
The sockets deadlock


"Java For Dummies"
Yee Haw! Are we coding yet?!
When's our IPO?

Please forward to everyone you know,
but it would be terribly rude to remove my name.
