Exploring the world of comic strips through vague Japanese poetry.
February 3, 2005
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's author believes his winning haiku from last week is unworthy due to a technicality...
Grunka Lunkas came,
Not from Groening's "The Simpsons"
but "Futurama"
Sorry, that's my fault.
Cohen should have been referenced.
Award is tainted.
--Sarcasmo
Haiku number two makes us wonder, what if it had said that everything it says is a lie?...
if you think this is
a haiku then I am so
sorry it is not
--Robishphaster
Haiku number three is hoping for more wardrobe malfunctions...
For Halftime old school,
Up With People should return.
With nipples for all.
--Sarcasmo
Haiku number four wins Haiku of the Week for planting disturbing images in our minds...
Irving in Vegas?
What could be better than that?
Cathy in strip show?
Imagine the shock
Imagine the horror. Ugh!
My lunch on the floor.
--Bad Panda
