PAD Day 10: Hay(na)ku!

Today's dual prompts from Poetic Asides and NaPoWriMo: (1) Write a poem entitled "The _______ Who _______", and (2) write a "Hay(na)ku". The latter is a poetic form created by one Eileen Tabios and coined by my poet friend Vince Gotera. It's very simple: line one contains one word, line two is two words, and line three is three words - short and sweet like a haiku. You can also string them together for a longer poem, like Vince has for a form he calls the "hay(na)ku sonnet". It's four hay(na)ku put together stanza style, with two three-word ending lines as a sort of envoi. Thus, fourteen lines. Here is my stab at one - I even tried to set up rhyme scheme in it:

The Man Who Went to the Supermarket During a Slow Apocalypse
