Everybody Was Haiku Fighting! - Page 2
winter is now here
so cold bleak and empty now
life comes to an end
Winter will give way
To Spring, prompting a cycle:
Constant renewal.
General Forum
Seems to me a noisy place.
Norm'lly I stay out.
But all this haiku
Makes me quickly split my sides
Laughing much too hard!
EDIT
Please do not neglect
To see the apostrophe
In that first haiku.
Apostrophe seen
And duly noted; it is
convenient for you!
(note:i pronounce convenient 3 syllables: con-ven-ient)
It seems that they do
On my fingers I counted
7-6-7 I sayYou are one to talk;
Even your own numbers err,
Five-seven-seven!

and the renewal
shall once again go to death

(note:i pronounce convenient 3 syllables: con-ven-ient)Many thanks have I
That you have such keen vision
If only all were so.
Minus the I say
And the structure is just right.
If not, disaster!

Indeed these seasons
Are just parts of one beast
The dark maw of Time
Time is a bastard
He likes to elude my grasp
Always the hurry!
And the cycle rolls
No mercy for us mortals
We leave no footprints
My exit comes soon
It is late, time teases me.
Yawns roll in swiftly.
It seems that they do

7-6-7 I sayYou are one to talk;
Even your own numbers err,

Gods you are correct
It appears that I slur my
Numbers quite fiercely
Alas, I must go.
I hear the voice of my mom:
"Please take out the trash!"
(OK, so she's not really bugging me right now; but I still need to go do it. Cheerio!)
Ah! The trash must go
Thanks for the reminder friends
I too must leave here
Apostrophe seen
And duly noted; it is
convenient for you!
(note:i pronounce convenient 3 syllables: con-ven-ient)Many thanks have I
That you have such keen vision

The last line is six!
Follow the form of haiku
Lest I cry hot tears.
The form it cries out
All of us fail in the end
But we can be renewed
Alas, most have left.
I struggle alone for this,
Yet I should go!

My syllables dont waver.

Never mind my post
Your post was not showing up
I stand corrected.
You have haiku skill-
A worthy opponent found.
Shall we spar for fun?
Nationstates.net
Is a fun site to frequent
For entertainment.
Your posts are many
And your talent impressive
But battle we shall
The first move is yours
Say what you will great rival
My repose is quick
Eleven o three
The clock keeps reminding me
I need to sleep now.
Twelve-o-six it is
In my lands, but I'm awake
Though my wits are slowed

Alas! Posts come slow
And if Father awakens,
grounded I will be.
Oh to heck with it,

But with line breaks at numbered
Syllabic places.

This lovely thread is
Dying, something must be done
So I say this: BUMP
Ahhh I see the light
Or is that just a freight train
Either way I jump
My drawing is done
So I return to NS
And haikus, in peace.
Le sigh, no one posts.
Where is the love for this thread?
It shall be bumped soon.

Yes, I think it shall.
It is to bad I cannot
Think of anything
Witty or clever
To say in response to you
Ah, what a pity it is.
Angels and mortals
Have visisted me tonight
When will she return
I should be working,
Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, Duke
All within my grasp(?)
Night say go to sleep
Day say wake up go to work
Either way we cry
I tire of this now.
Haikus are fun for a while-
Short attention span.
Too many choices
Future always important
But not if mind lost
See her chaos eyes
Serenity in the storm
Fall into the depths

wading through shadows
past thatched roof homes
soldiers clutching guns
Why the heck does it
show 22 pages if
words on 21?
Phantom pages lost
Perhaps a secret of life
Or, well, maybe not
A discovery -
Mythic pages-in-waiting,
quirk of the design
Ghosts of deleted
Once were there but now are gone
They breath without breath

Ti posso leccare la figa?
Hom qua tao choi me may do,
Im mixed viet - italian.
No hablay at all
Latin was a waste of time
Perhaps truth comes through
Howl Howl Howl I say
All things seem to fall apart
Here, both pain and joy
See she has returned
Her chaos eyes call to me
My heart lost in her
The topics dying
The sands of time cover it
But we remember

My brother watches
"House of 1000 Corpses"
That movie was lame.
I return again
A few more haikus, but I
Am getting bored now.
Sex sex sex sex sex
More sex sex sex sex and sex
sex sex sex sex sex
Sex sex sex sex sex
More sex sex sex sex and sex
sex sex sex sex sex
That promises more
Than the common haiku here
Sounds like lots of fun!
After long absence
I return to write one more
Piece before I sleep.
Shadow over all,
We cannot know our futures.
Rest in ignorance.

into one long line
it does in one line
what the east does in three lines.

So this is your way

Watch me win, you lose.
So now with limericks you want to fight
I'll kick your arse all through the night

For haiku and I
Will give you a wonderful fright.

I cant write
Poetry. At all
how many lines
does a haiku have?
You offend my eyes-
Your structure is just so wrong!
Haiku is 3 lines.
(and the syllables are 5-7-5)

Say NS has turned ugly,

Red blood running down a dark street
Gun is man's best friend

Though they fall in dust of tanks

Guns wonderful guns
People wonderful people
To live free, to kill
Just five syllables
Swim in a bisque of your thought
Who just moved my cheese?
