Exploring the world of comic strips through vague Japanese poetry.
December 22, 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 is having a busy Christmas season...
Lies, Spies, and Georgie
What the hell are we doing?
Looking for Xbox.
--Tony J. Moyer
Haiku number two gets Haiku of the Week for putting us all in the Christmas spirit...
Non-blinking white lights
Adorn the tree at our house.
Tasteful and lovely.
Christmas is coming.
Don't forget to thank the Lord
For the greatest gift.
--Sarcasmo
