PowerShot Death Haiku

...

Fly away from me!
Speed through air, downward dropping.
PowerShot, meet floor.

From the "grave"

Butterfingered man!
Unfailing, I served your needs.
This is my reward?

Strong metal body!
But lens barrel crumples like
Fragile tin foil.

Well, that does look a whole lot worse than what my wife did to her A10. In that case, I was able to pull the lens back to the proper position and it worked.

When something is already trashed, you don't to worry about breaking it!

Sorry, I wasn't up to putting this in haiku form.

Head hanging in shame,

Extra syllable
in your Haiku disappoints,
much like your Panny.

What you sell might be
another's treasure, not mine.
Good luck on Ebay.

Old gone; new begins.
Enlightened soul ponders not
Canon loyalty!

Beckons me. But what comes next?
PMA in March...

To borrow wife's Elph,
One submits to condition:
Lanyard around neck!

Lanyard beats wrist strap,
Wear Elph as jewelry... but
Wrist strap beats damage!

Jealous tears burn face.
