#1: Smoking Is Not Allowed On Zoo Grounds
CIGARETTE SMOKER
I SWEAR I'LL HUNT YOU DOWN AND-
kindly ask you stop.
#2: Dear Interns
That unique zoo smell
will always mask your own stink,
but please still shower.
#3: I Can't Stand Touching The Fish Pans
Wash your damn dishes.
Don't leave them for me, I've got
my own work to do.
#4: We Are Open Every Day Of The Year Yes Even Christmas Come Back Tomorrow
The zoo closed at six.
But guests won't leave the bird house.
I want to go home.
#5: (We've All Tried It)
Lorikeet nectar;
Smells like bananas and cake,
Tastes like sweetened dirt.
#6: Set The Example
Do not pet. Keep your
hands to yourself. You're the god
damn adult. BEHAVE.
#7: We Have Safety Rules For A Reason
I saw you harass
that bird. That's why you got bit.
I warned you asshole.

I saw a post going around tumblr a year or two ago full of haikus written by a zoo keeper about zoo keeping. I thought they were funny, and when I started my job as a keeper myself, I made my own after experiencing a few things that constantly happen to me on a daily basis. After four months, I've written these seven little poems, most of which are kind of pessimistic, but then again working with people who don't listen will do that to you. Enjoy~
