Exploring the world of comic strips through vague Japanese poetry.
May 26, 2005
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 isn't looking for free government handouts...
Ask Lesko what's best.
Is that how Skip got his cash?
The Riddler should sue.
Browser is jacked up.
Did it submit yet, or not?
Cross fingers and click.

Haiku number two seems a bit harsh about I, II, and III, but it's definitely not something we haven't heard before...
this is my first Haiku ever, so I'm kinda proud of myself... and yeah, it's another Star Wars Haiku:
Old trilogy rules!
I love Han Solo and Luke,
Vader is so cool
A New Hope's thrilling,
Empire is a masterpiece,
Jedi has good parts.
New trilogy sucks
Anakin is pathetic
Lucas, shame on you!

Haiku number three wins Haiku of the Week for most mirroring Team Rockwood's opinions, but "on par with Keanu?" Is that an achievement?...
Yeah, the new Star Wars
Is much improved--most in the
case of Hayden C.
(Seriously, he's got to be at least on par with Keanu Reeves now!)
--Elizabeth
