Friday Ad Haiku: Art Directors

A copywriter's best friend, worst enemy, and everything in between. Equal parts Lennon & McCartney, Laurel & Hardy, and Sonny & Cher--with a headline and deadline thrown in.
To the folks that make us look as good as we're convinced we are, my Friday 5-7-5:





Don't cut my copy.

Why'd you put the logo there?
You bastard-genius.

  1. My genius could not be conveyed in only one Haiku, so I chose two.


    I am DaVinci
    You are DaPaint by numbers,
    Blind to my brilliance.

    Do not touch. Perfect
    As is. Would you paint mustache
    On Mona Lisa?

    Absolutely no can do.
