Haiku Instead?

[cardgame]

I've never thought much
Of formulaic verse anyway
And rhymes are not my forte

Nuclear Warfare
An end to Humanity
monkeys reign supreme

 

[Birdjaguar]

syllables and lines
break the unity of thought--
god alone is all

 

[Ramius75]

Liberal Democratic
More than fifty years of rule
Enough is enough

 

[Tergiversater]

You think you're big
With your fancy little words
This is not so hard

 

[Borachio]

scorn me all you might
still i'll love you all the more
so it makes me sad

 

[Kyriakos]

Gives birth to a beautiful child,
aborts its last descendant,

but Germany will die too.

Isn't this thread old?
The dead should be left in peace,
Not mocked with bad poems!

Play Crusader Kings:
Worship Ahura Mazda,
Tumble with sister!

 

[Kyriakos]

Maniaces was furious,
he met the enemy army near Thessalonica,

but the eunuch was not killed.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

A lady named Bright
Travelled much faster than light
Relativity

She set out one day
Came back the previous night
That's not a jiffy

Haikuricks are hard

 

[cardgame]

wow, this dates back to

me being a total noob

uncomfortable

 

[illram]

for let them eat cake.

 

[Birdjaguar]

Sheets of blue ice crack
Shards hold the sky in pieces—
“Holographic, !”

Edit: The auto censor bleeped out Jesse Pinkman's favorite word!

A good mod
A bad poet

Correlation?

 

[H4run]

I'll try to compose serious haiku, also to practice my English, lets see:

the moon float
in the pitch dark sky
without (e)motion

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

New Cosmos is great
Tyson is my physics God
What is dark matter?

 

[H4run]

An old drunk
Lectures on the importance
of consciousness

 

[illram]

A good mod

Correlation?

syllable counting
is a rather simple thing.
well, for me that is

 

[Kyriakos]

i did not know the number
of syllables in haiku was set,

my mistake

 

[illram]

greeks get a free pass
on matters of poetry.
just no incest please.

 

[MagisterCultuum]

Syllables matter?
Not so! Morae are the thing
That define haiku.
