Last week, city Transportation Commissioner Janette Sadik-Khan unveiled 12 haikus about traffic on signs that will be posted at 144 intersections citywide — poetic reminders intended to distract New Yorkers from dangerously burying their noses in their smartphones while crossing the street.

But the cutesy $25,000 “curbside haiku” plan — paid for with funds recovered from DWI arrests by the state — isn’t for everyone. New York Post readers wrote in to express their feelings about the street signs, in verse:

Bike flies

like the wind

Left behind,

like fallen leaf,

woman sprawled

on ground

—Dennis Middlebrooks, Brooklyn

Sadik-Khan

must go—

Along with

her bicycle

lanes and

foot plazas

— Robert Hughes, Floral Park

Haiku sign

distracts

its warning to

be alert

Car! — it’s a

near miss

— John Jeannopoulos, Manhattan
