 Exploring the world of comic strips
through vague Japanese poetry.
January 17, 2008
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 describes 2008's haikus
so far...
Must have a big head.
Sarcasmo wins two straight weeks.
Time for someone else.
--Spud Webb
Haiku number two thinks we led people astray
with some NSFW links on a previous
Rockwood
Mailbag ...
How could you Rockwood?
Raw Meat is so rude. Straight face
difficult at work.
I must be careful.
Even engineers get fired.
My wife would kill me.
--Bad Panda
Haiku number three follows the realization
that our links were fine, it was someone's
memory that was bad...
My Haiku was flawed.
Name is Red Meat,
not Raw Meat.
The shame is all mine.
--Bad Panda
Haiku number four asks us how the movie
was. We think it might be the best Godzilla-like movie ever, although it was
kind of short (less than 80 minutes). Definitely
worth
seeing, though...
How was the
movie?
Yes, I do what I'm told. SO?
Is it worth seeing?
--Sarcasmo
Haiku
number five gets Haiku of
the
Week because it plugs the calendars. Why would that surprise you? Do you
think we've changed that much since
last year? Although, we have to say, Mitt did win a race,
and you can't buy
two calendars because there's only one left. Hurry and buy!
Vacation over
Haiku of the week is mine.
Sarcasmo is done.
I will win this week
By pitching some calendars.
Buy Two of them now.
It is in the bag.
Money always wins the race.
unless you are Mitt.
--Anthony
