 Exploring the world of comic strips
through vague Japanese poetry.
January 22, 2009

- 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 takes a cryptic
letter and turns it into a cryptic haiku...
Black is the new white.
I'm not sure what that means, but
It sounded profound.
--Sarcasmo
Haiku number two laments last week's lack
of haikus...
no haiku of week?
it is all my fault; for i
failed to send one in
--Mikki
Haiku number three gets Haiku of
the Week because big announcements deserve recognition...
No haiku last week.
Work is keeping me busy.
I won't lapse again.
Now for the real news.
I'm going to be a Dad!
Come April, that is.
--Sarcasmo
Want to see last week's Haiku Thursday? Go
