Exploring the world of comic strips through vague Japanese poetry.
August 28, 2003
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 sees if lightning strikes twice...
Haikus sent early,
conversely, never attain
Haiku of the Week
--larK
Haiku number two confirms that it doesn't...
Last minute Haiku-
Equals Haiku of the Week.
Believe it - or not.
--Sarcasmo
Haiku number three comes from a supporter of a school that is already screwing up football season...
The Two Towers out,
But the special edition
Is still months away.
Football season starts,
The Gators look to be worse...
Or are they the Crocs?
--The Raven's Mirror
Finally, haiku number four gets Haiku of the Week for knowing that we planned on spending Wednesday night looking to the sky. At least, we did, until it got cloudy. Curse you god of war!!
Martians are coming?
Maybe one of them wants to
Run for governor.
-Roy
