- Haikus are a form of poetry that consists of three lines with five, seven, then five syllables on each respective line. For example...
Rockwood is in space (5 syllables)
On a circular station (7 syllables)
Looking down on Earth (5 syllables)
Obviously, that's pretty boring, but technically correct. Try to do more than just count syllables. Be creative!
- The haiku you submit doesn't necessarily have to have Rockwood mentioned in it, but it would be nice if it related to something in the site somehow, whether it be space-related or just pertaining to a topic brought up elsewhere.
On with the haikus!
Haiku number one unearths the depths of "reality" TV...
No! It cannot be!
Celebrity Boxing 2!
Fox to a new low.
--Chris
Haiku number two details the most anticipated season finale...
Monday's strip mentioned many things, but missed the series end which pleased me the most. Free at last!
Al, Mitch go gaga.
Geek overdose or cheering:
No Ally McBeal!
--Dale
Haiku number three imagines the mixing of worlds, if both worlds can simultaneously be found...
Life without Rockwood!
I'll never want to try it.
Stupid Interland.
Two haiku from me?
The muse has woken up! Now
I must ask you this:
Tony and Kepler:
Real Life and Fake Life. Why can't
They work together?
Greg and Will. Both plain.
Both hold their worlds together.
Can they crossover?
--Hannah Orlove
Haiku number four earns the Haiku of the Week for briefly summarizing last week's outage...
They knew where you were
Yet refused to point us there
Network $olutions
--karl
Haiku number five perhaps gives us too much credit...
Jack Miller's guest shot.
"We'll smoke 'em out with humor."
It seems to have worked.
Finally, haiku number six expresses the thoughts of thousands of fans...
Baby takes much work
Cry all night, don't let you sleep
Remember condoms
As the Apple Turns
Back after such a long time
My life has meaning
-Devin
