 Exploring the world of comic strips
through vague Japanese poetry.

- 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 is taking a break from
poetry to get on the J.J. Abrams train...
Taking the day off
From work, but not from Haikus
Can't wait to see Lost
--Sarcasmo
Haiku number two is just taking a break,
or is it?...
No Haiku from me
I can't think of anything
I hate writer's block
--Joe Wright
Haiku number three is about another kind
of poetry...
There once was a girl...
May the twelfth is Limerick
Day.
They don't fit haiku.
--Monty
Haiku number four gets Haiku of
the
Week to atone for spoiling...
Spoiler Alert Mistake.
Too excited not to talk.
Me and my big mouth.
But here is good news.
With cheating, Brian wins Ko-
bayashi Maru.
Brian is captain.
Kirk pilots a garbage scow.
Federation doomed.
--Bad Panda
