We always get a kick out of official city slogans and branding – for many years, Mesa used “Great People, Quality Service,” which sounds like something you’d read on an HVAC van. But why stop with slogans? Why not have official city haikus? We enlisted ChatGPT to help.

PHOENIX
Sunset paints the sky,
Desert winds hum through the streets,
Phoenix rises bright

GILBERT
Quiet streets at dusk,
Gilbert Goons roam, calm yet loud,
Suburbs hold their sway.

SCOTTSDALE
Fake palm trees stand tall,
Shiny cars, but no heart here,
Plastic dreams in dust.

TEMPE
Crowded bars, hot streets,
Tempe’s charm is hard to find,
Just a college blur.
