Exploring the world of comic strips through vague Japanese poetry.
October 3, 2002

- 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!
It's playoff time, and haiku number one notes that although baseball is a very Zen game, the same does not hold true of its owners...
Baseball liking fans?
What on earth were they thinking?
All they like is cash.
--Konrad
Haiku number two, as one of only two submissions, achieves Haiku of the Week for cheering for the right team...
Somewhat on topic....
Lance in space, again.
Funding comes and goes, it seems.
Time to sell plasma.
Twins in the playoffs!
MLB cares for the fans?
Not while I'm alive.
Comic addiction,
Mildly satisfied right now,
Rockwood makes me smile.
--Leif
