Exploring the world of comic strips through vague Japanese poetry.

- 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 explores strange new worlds...
Trekker or Trekkie...
Can't we all just live in peace?
In the end, all geeks.
and
CIA Trekkers
Spy on Paramount to catch
News of next movie.
--Mikki
Haiku number two seeks out new life and new civilizations...
Trekkie or Trekker?
Who is to say who is right?
The fans in costume?
No, that is not right.
The majority vote is
not the Starfleet way.
Mikki Wesley fan.
Mine, Riker. Heir to Kirks throne
Captain Ladies Man.
--Bad Panda
Haiku number three gets Haiku of the Week for boldly going where no man has gone before...
Kepler's pitch to Skip for coming to the station was all about zero-g. Granted we'll not be seeing anything like that around here in such a nice family-oriented webcomic. That in mind, hope this isn't too risque.
if Bond has taught us
anything, it's that there's fun
found in zero-g
live like astronauts
free of pesky gravity
but avoid bulkheads
--Mikki
