Bizz Poetry
I think this potentially has more verses:
Once upon a night-shift dreary, while I posted, tired and bleary,
On many a recent phonescoop comment, whilst closing up my store.
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my now-locked door.
"'I'm an AT&T customer," he blurted, "tapping at your just-closed door.
Do you have the iPhone 4?"
...and a Haiku:
Sale was going well
"No I can't waive upgrade fee"
Now she is yelling

It's sung to the tune of "The Dredle Song" (I apologise in advance if this offends any Jewish people).
Iphone, Iphone, Iphone
I dropped you on the floor.
Iphone, Iphone, Iphone
And now you are no more.
I waited for the white one
And now it looks like crap
The back is in 3 pieces,
And the screen is full of cracks.
Steve Jobs is really gloating now
And doing a happy dance.
I gotta buy another one
Cause I don't have insurance.

Bravo! I like the insurance rhyme! While it's not exactly poetry, I'll piggyback your (summer) holiday cheer with my rendition of Oh, Christmas Tree.
Oh Palm Pre Plus, Oh Palm Pre Plus,
why is your a-ttach rate so low?
Oh Palm Pre Plus, Oh Palm Pre Plus,
where did your loy-al users go?
You promised much in feeaatures.
I was your greatest preeaacher.
Oh Palm Pre Plus, Oh Palm Pre Plus,
so many re-turns, much sorrow.
Today's Haiku comes from a customer today who rudely insisted that a phone had a microSD slot, when it did not...
You are the expert?
It is not like I do this
for a living, jerk.
