Exploring the world of comic strips through vague Japanese poetry.

October 2, 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!


In order to get haiku number one you'll need to hover your mouse over last Friday's comic strip, and even then only Simpsons' fans will understand...

Rove's a stonecutter?
Who rigs every Oscar night?
WE DO! WE DO! Yeah!

--Sarcasmo


Haiku number two should search for the phrase "two adjacent parallel beam pipes"...

Super Collider
All Atoms are Launched Once Way
Where's the Collision?

--Michael


Haiku number three will need to stay in its happy place for another month or so...

Politics? Not me!
Always in my happy place.
Is it over yet?

--Bobby


Haiku number four gets Haiku of the Week for making us wonder how much that many dimes would weigh...

Rescue us Skip, PLEASE!
Brother could you spare a dime?
Seven trillion dimes.

--Sarcasmo
