Killing Time with A's Haikus

We've got 3 long days to go, and I've got 3 more hours to kill before I can leave work. To whit, I am passing the time by composing some A's Haikus. I realize this doesn't really qualify as something of substance, but I hope some of you have fun with it. There are always some really clever contributors to AN, so I'm sure you all can come up with some better ones than I've written to get the ball rolling...
Macha, please protest!
Nah, the dugout is comfy.
Got to be Nations.
Whither goes Byrnsie
to the Mets or maybe Mars
Make it stop Billy
What is with those clothes?
seen those orange pants before
Zito's walk of shame
Looking on in fear
Can he possibly make it?
Ruby, First to Third

Now a little something for the ladies
and an old parking receipt.
Gosh those pants are tight.
Bobby Crosby. . . yum.
Must break me off some of that.
Now that's man candy.
Do you have a comb,
My California surf boy?
Or, dear Brynes, pomade?
The Aces are gone,
MLB's hottest three-way:
Barrage-a-trois.

Just for You
Nothing beats high socks,
The green calf-tastic glory.
Chicks dig the knickers.

hehe :)
Look at this picture... I got quite bored during spring break. ;)
Isn't it just so pretty?? There's a definite future, right Blez? ;)
If any A's players are reading this, I hope they don't get scared...

Finally good news:
Monday evening, east coast time
Time to get it on
"Your attention please,"
His season debut is near
Roy Steele, Voice of God
This was harder than I thought.

Live Haiku blogging
Tried out for a starting job,
Pitches in bullpen.

Tell me if this is good
They can't agree on city,

Haiku!
Just try to be popular
By not wrecking guys
Marco Scutaro
Echoing out loud and proud
The best game ever
I think Billy's brain
Could buy a new stadium
If sold on ebay

Or...
But still the same boys in green
And the Yankees suck.

Haikus are overrated
Last night in the 10th we were tied
Bay bragging rights were on the line
"Mean Street" on the mound
His weakness was found
Revenge will be ours though, tonight

Another Ode to Last Night
Last night on SBC soil,
Those Giants did win,
But was it in sin?
Our A's use no flax seed oil.

Random change
Who wore white baseball shoes on his feet-o
When he wore his pants tight
And his socks pulled up right
It made GreenNGoldGirl cry "neat-o!"

It is, isn't it?
But come fall, in October
Please, please touch the plate

Yet another one...
There is no "A" in steroid,
Well, not anymore.

Once upon a Bash Brother ...
with shots in his butt everyday
His biceps did grow
But with finances low
Spits on what it means to be an 'A'

Ode to Booby
They said he was worse than Chris Truby
But due to great luck
(Byrnesie traded to Bucs)
We learned he was better than Ruby

How about a topical one?
Best GM for 12 more years
Championship soon
This is a great thread. Thanks, batgirl.

2005 AL West Haiku prediction
Garden Grove Angels, no way
Rangers fade, A's win

Another limerick
Kirk Saarloos' performance did tickle us
But no Cruz control
Could lighten the toll
And meanwhile the loss was Harikkala's

Great

Dan Johnson
But the A's kept the young 'un at bay
He showed with his bat
He could out-hit the Hatt
Yet they sent him back to triple A
