Exploring the world of comic strips through vague Japanese poetry.
April 6, 2006
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 pits a Princess Bride against a Holy Grail ...
It's a great movie,
But I still have to ask: Why?
How 'bout some Python?
"She's a WITCH! BURN HER!"
"She turned me into a Newt."
"Well, I got better."
Daylight savings time:
A law that's way past its prime?
Late sun is sublime.
--Sarcasmo
Haiku number two gets Haiku of the Week because we, too, have the 4 GB Nano, and it is truly awesome...
Bad Panda now knows
Why the IPOD frenzy grows
Large Nano now owned.
4 Gigs of tunes played
but wait! Damien is back?
Get refund. End times.
--Bad Panda
