 Exploring the world of comic strips
through vague Japanese poetry.
January 8, 2009
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 written weeks ago,
when we said we might publish
something
on Christmas
day...
Here's a miracle,
I get a five day weekend.
How's that for a gift?
Now, more serious.
Christmas means a lot to me.
Thank God for Jesus.
--Sarcasmo
Haiku number two gets Haiku of
the
Week because of the plug. We're shameless!...
missed the new year's turn
stuck home, in bed, five days...darn
sinus infection
hope for new year is
health and continued laughs, need
Rockwood calendar
maybe this year i
break down and join all those who
buy stuff on the 'net.
--Mikki
