Exploring the world of comic strips through vague Japanese poetry.
September 12, 2002
The content on this page is solely created by you, the viewers, so if you want to see more, you'll have to contribute something yourself.
- 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 finds the positives in school...
Something for Haiku Thursday...
Back at school again!
No more waking up at ten;
Vacation's over!
Can't say I'm happy.
But at least I get to see
Lots of babes in shorts!
--The Sophomore
Haiku number two doesn't realize that no school means the terrorists have already won...
On a dark, sad note:
Cancel school Wednesday?
Not any chance in the world!
Evil principal.
And on a lighter note:
Doctor Seuss football:
Any win is a good win,
No matter how small.
--Shadow
Haiku number three's author likes her cartoons with teeth...
I thank you, Brian.
Not too timid or silly.
We need more like you.
--Hannah Orlove
And haiku number four is the Haiku of the Week for reminding us that, despite all that's being remembered this week, normal life does indeed go on...
Friday night at work
Reinstalling a server
Windows NT sucks
-- The Jedi
