Flushed Away Gregor

I found this picture, and I think it's from Flushed Away. I like how the bug is reading the Metamorphosis.

Sorry this isn't about your pic Bo (which is a good find), but I need to put my 10 Haikus in here.

Painting
Gregor sticks to it
And he will not let it go
He wants this painting

Couch
Gregor lies beneath
His blanket keeps him discrete
He will take a peek

Apple POV
A cold hand threw me
Now I am lodged in a back
This bug will soon die

Violin POV
Some love my great chords
But these men look very bored
They will be abhorred

Manager of Firm
I must find this man
Will he come out of that room?
Wow, he is grotesque

Gregor
I wake to find in bed
The sight of two sets of legs
I’d rather be dead

Gregor #2
No more furniture
I’ll just hang from the ceiling
This is appealing

Gregor’s Mother
I will not approach
My son who is now a roach
I weep and feel weak

Grete
I lost my brother
Due to metamorphosis
I now need a job


Gregor’s Father
I am quite lazy
Gregor better not slay me
This is too crazy

Sorry Ms. Deckard. One of the lines has six syllables instead of five. Oops.

Bo, that's an awesome find. I bet 98% of the people that saw that movie didn't catch that one.

Of course not, Andrew
The audience is just kids
But their folks got it

oh it's acutally 96% of the people, andrew
