Exploring the world of comic strips through vague Japanese poetry.

August 28, 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.

  1. 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!

  2. 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 in cryptozoologic creatures...

Rubber suit you say?
That's not at all convincing
I think Bigfoot's real

--Rose


But in haiku number two, the same author doesn't believe a major political figure...

Now she backs Barack
Come on now, give us a break
How can we believe?

--Rose


Haiku number three is off by half because it only counts ONE convention...

Olympic watch ends.
Convention watch in the works?
Seven DAYS of FLUFF!

--Sarcasmo


Haiku number four gets Haiku of the Week because we have been sleeping better this week...

The games are now done
Brian, the Olympic freak
Can now be at peace.

--Tony
