 Exploring the world of comic strips
through vague Japanese poetry.
January 29, 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 talks about the weather,
but never does anything about it...
snow, snow everywhere
will this winter never end?
only two more months...
--Jane Rohan
Haiku number two gets Haiku of the
Week, but is almost more of a discovery than a creation...
I'm a space cowboy
Bet you weren't ready for that.
I'm a space cowboy
Old songs and haikus
Hiding like gems in a field
What songs can you find?
--Bad Panda
