 Exploring the world of comic strips
through vague Japanese poetry.
June 18, 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 is wondering where the
name came from...
Bing? Seriously?
Named for Bing Crosby maybe?
He knew everything.
--Sarcasmo
Haiku number two is building up a reference
database...
search engine? google
reference? wikipedia
math? wolframalpha
--Spike
Haiku number three thinks it's too late
for the newcomer...
Microsoft give up
Your search engine bites big time
Google wins this round
--Jane Rohan
Haiku number four gets Haiku of
the
Week for highlighting the most important test of a search engine...
My searched term: "Rockwood"
Found comic on Bing's page 4
And Google's page 1
--Joe Wright
