Exploring the world of comic strips through vague Japanese poetry.
October 30, 2003

- 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 makes us wonder: Are they pod people, perhaps?...
Telemarketers
are people too, are they not?
Not if you ask me.
--Sarcasmo
Haiku number two gets Haiku of the Week. Beginners luck? Maybe. Or maybe the solar flares just influenced our decision...
Be gentle - this is my first crack at Haiku Thursday:
Can't help but wonder
How the recent solar flare
Will change space station
You wouldn't believe how difficult that was...lol
--John McLain
