（得到博弈鼓励，加一特刊，10 首 俗俳/谐俳）
1
Always get short-changed
but always get over-charged
Math makes me confused
2
On all the bank notes
who cares who’s who? But beware
of bogus money
3
Baked in Hell’s oven
kids scared hearing this story
vowed to be true men
4
Of course, for the oil
the earth is drilled, the sea sucked
What else is intact?
5
Singularity -
Freedom from duplicity
He remains single
6
“Who’s indecisive?”
A decision maker grinned
“I’ll decide for you!”
7
Flies buzz around a
cow’s arse like bees to honey
a different taste
8
I’m a pragmatist
A house, a car, stocks n’ savings -
A must for the wed!
9
Family planning -
Just one child per family
Boys outnumbered girls
10
With a pinch of salt
the soup tastes most delicious
Mama’s masterpiece
。

wow, thanks, finally something falls into my comfort zone,
I like the name 谐俳, should be easily difficult or difficultly easy?
I can read one at a time, for I know, be extremely careful with petite size
for fun, how about the 3rd line as:
O Math ‘n mad tricks
sound close to "O Mathematics"
but -ed pattern will be lost, well, just a first read

it's cute.
you are crafted with the sound of words, that's for sure.
it's open to various options, no need to worry about the end sound.
I need help in the third line all the time. Thanks.

how about speech instead of taste?
ps.
This poem reminds me 911 and US, UK,
quite different from your original intent, maybe
Why I said that?
Buzz is like a US word like Bush, arse is like a Brit slang, like its PM;
there is no honey but attacks by bees and sweet talks to the
stinky.

谢谢博弈 给这首小诗 赋予多义。
读读你的解析，也是这么回事，说得通。
Kokho 是不是觉得 'arse' sounds vulgar?
