Exploring the world of comic strips through vague Japanese poetry.
May 13, 2004
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...eww! This isn't the Island of Dr. Moreau! There will be no interspecies experiments, here...
Sitting at the bar
Is there alcohol on board?
Or boring parties?
Snoopy and the Newt
New love interests, perhaps
Weird looking children*
*supposing either a: one is male and the other female or b: kepler has got some sort of cloning device up his sleeve
--Greg
Haiku number two gets Haiku of the Week for not proposing odd genetic experiments...
This, a house of flame?
Nah, I'm just having some fun!
You know I love you!
Mac: A refined tool.
PC: An shiny toobox.
Windows: Bill's old tools.
Besides, I figured "Attack Brian's computer" was a better tack than the "Attack Brian's Comic" theme people have been getting on lately! Keep up the good work. I, for one, like that you keep Rockwood current.
--Brian Layman
