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 has its heart in the right place, but haiku is serene; why are you yelling?...
Sorry, I can't stand those people who sit and talk and discuss the movie while it's playing.
MUST SEE NEW STAR WARS
WANT TO GO TO FIRST SHOWING
ALL THE GEEKS COME OUT
MUST REFRAIN MYSELF
STUPID PEOPLE BEHIND ME
TALKING THROUGH THE SHOW
MUST NOT START A FIGHT
STUPID PEOPLE WON'T SHUT UP
WILL USE THE DARK SIDE
YES, CRUSH THEM LIKE BUGS
BETTER WAIT UNTIL NEXT WEEK
DARK SIDE IS STRONG HERE
WILL GO WHEN QUIET
ALL THE STUPID PEOPLE HOME
JUST ME AND POP-CORN

The Saga is now complete.
What's next for Lucas?
