Exploring the world of comic strips through vague Japanese poetry.
November 9, 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 was scarred for life from getting hard taffy for Halloween...
I hate orange candy
you know, the ones no one likes
Why does it Exist.
--Anthony
Haiku number two is funny, but really, we were working for the Hornets the night before...
New comic is late
poor Brian's succumbed to new
marital duties.
Honey-do's come first.
Will, Skip and the gang must wait.
Honeymoon's over. :)
--Bad Panda
Haiku number three gets Haiku of the Week and will get more in the future, if he can tell us where to sign up...
Saddam will hang now!
No need for appeals process,
