Here is much debate.
Many words but little said.
A fix in haiku?
Pointless posts no thought,
reply with e-motes or small,
when will madness end?
Here is precision.
Syllables are seventeen,
or less if you want.
This message is long,
but thorough I must be here.
Only haiku here!
Who knows where this goes?
All of gen-gen in haiku?
Yakspit is a dope.
I think it would help
But my haiku skills are poor
So I'll sit this out
I am tempted, though
To post cool biker haikus
From Full Throttle 1
i did haikus in class
i really did not like it
mine went just like this
damn, cant remember
but does it really matter
damn these syllables
Yakspit is cultured
this he has shown in this thread
I thank him dearly
Threads that are like this
are what this forum prospers on
He's a messiah
Be this the answer
To our posting decadence?
No but fun perhaps
"What is a Haiku?"
A poem of syllables
Five Seven And Five
One two three four five.
One two three four five six sev--
Crap, that didn't work.
remember my dears
The rythym five seven five
makes haiku haiku
Hai-ku How thou make?
Look online, copy, plagarise
Makes you look brilliant.
Edit [By my idiocy, I can't even adhere to simple syllable rules when talking about brains. We'll better than the one word hiakus. What were they trying to say in those?]
Dear LasNaranjas,
that was a very good post.
Educational.
If I were a mod.
I would delete your profiles.
Oh, but wait, I am.
Ghormak, you praise me
I, whose only wish dictates
the world be learned.
This is hardly zen
I had quite a long haiku
then: disconnected
my haiku is phat
it's totally gonna rock
cover your asses
this haiku ain't done
it's rocking in the new year
never gonna die
I just wanna say
this haiku is for all the
niggaz that be down
cause my momma said
knock you out, and i'm gonna
knock you out, rock on
oh yea, one word posts:
they suck, so doncha do that
you should know this, peace
hey ghormak you suck
think your haikus are better?
I will slaughter you.
I'd like to see it
you trying to haiku with
my foot in your ass
Scumm, Mean I Not Harm
But two of your lines above
Are too long in sound
Eric also errs.
The line that starts with "they suck..."
is a bit too long.
Eric, you bastard.
Don't you edit your haikus!
You make me look dumb!
As for fighting you,
do not be ridiculous.
I would hit you hard.
Evenwolf, I curse thee
Editing your post before
to make fool of me
silly new people
dont know the hiaku power
reaches deep inside
fix wounds new and old
our tired bonds reforming
chris will cry in joy
Happy will be rest
when they wake they see hiaku
the board is restored
Ghormak let us rest
haiku is not ment for war
friendly we will be
we get along well
if i had extra sandwhich
to you it would go
remember the love
all those hardened balls of love
the moose do not war
no they do not war
they only desire more cows
and can you blame them
You speak words of truth.
The moose only wants more cow.
I cannot blame it.
If one moose yearns for
the same cow as another
fight is imminent.
Symbolic, fight is.
There is no actual hatred.
It's all in good sport.
(I wonder one thing,
the syllable-amount of
the word actual)
So yes, let us rest.
Fighting is not based on hate.
They do it for fun.
Once upon a time
Someone wrote a few haikus
Then he soiled himself
--------------------------
I am like a tree
When the lumberjack stops by
I cannot stay erect
--------------------------
I do not like beer
Spare me that conniving phoam
Carbonated piss
--------------------------
Sometimes fake acounts
(Captain Planet and Roger)
Make the forums fun
Others aren't as fun
like RPG Creator
and that CJ guy
--------------------------
Clowns are horrible
I met a clown at the fair
He exposed himself
I was traumitized
He claims it was a balloon
I know what I saw
Mother called the cops
We violently beat the clown
Someone filmed it all
Seven weeks later
There was an immense trial
Mom and I were jailed
Seven years later
We were finally released
But that clown walks free
--------------------------
*brain implodes*
Do
You
Know
WHY
all
the
hate?
Is it too late now
to jump on the bandwagon?
I hope it is not.
'Tis never too late
To speak with only haiku
For great fun they are
Why do all haikus
End up with speech like Yoda,
Word order, reversed
Haikus are quite fun
Except if you don't know how
To make good haiku
Or you could copy
From Bart Simpson's Guide to Life
The guide to po'try
Note this clever skill
I have with apostrophe
Make six beats to five
I stop haiku now
I have no more words to say
My speech is quite done.
I don't understand
syllables have me confused
haikus be damned
My panacaea
is under attack from trap
I defend thee o' beer.
He, a philistine
dares to question thy flavour
Barbararian he.
But yet in haiku
five in last line I see not
he gives beats of 6.
I had a strange dream
I was exreting blue smoke
Figure that out, Freud
If younger siblings
have trouble remembering
the letter's order
teach them this haiku. *)
Memory will be improved
for easier fun.

W X Y Z, yes -

_____________
*) Yes, I am aware
that a group of four haikus
cannot be called one
and that the haiku
was traditionally part
of another form
of longer poem -
but nobody really cares
and neither do I.
Haiku is from east
Japan, where China expelled
Her ugly people
Flippy please stop it
if you don't want to haiku
then stop posting please
Haiku is a skill
Known to many a culture
But mastered by few
Those who can't partake
Must simply lack inner peace
It will come one day
My girlfriend spoke words
like those last spoken by Chris
I am still ashamed.
We are so cultured
To post only in haiku
It makes me so proud
Maybe someone should
make a game all in haiku
Wouldn't that be fun?
Well, no, I guess not
I don't know what I have smoked
Maybe some salmon
Ok, enough puns
I will really stop this now
Back to AGS!
I am disturbed, Eric
But by your Nazi strictness
May our games flourish
And now is the time
To point and laugh at you
Yes, I can Haiku!
True that it's a joke
but please read the message
do not insult me
Kgr8thx
Flippy you are wrong
Your first sentence had six words
Better luck next time
Robert Redford three
Kyriakos uploads thee
I'm waiting for thee
Dear CJ: Flippy's
second and third verses'
second lines as well.
I know you're reading,
kyriakos hasapis.
Finish uploading!
I do not get it
how can I make a Haiku?
I wonder all day.
when should I use five?
and when should I use seven?
and when five again?
I don't think I can
make a haiku that works kids
so I will not try.
I'm sorry Fuzzpilz
But you also are not right
A six part line two
it is funny that
even in haiku there are
people that anger
flippy tell me when
you feel i insulted you
all i said was, "stop"
All i wanted was
for this thread to flourish some
you were breaking it
oh well moving on
my haiku continues, boy
it will rock your ass
you sucka M.Cs
think you can haiku with me?
ghormak's got my back
trap, he's got my front
he could haiku ya'll till dawn
you better not step
now get yo'self set
cause now is the time where we
dance. Dance of the dead.
haiku past the grave
i'm gonna lick out dem brains
MC Zombie, yo
Bloody haikus suck!
They're just an excuse for you
to prove you can count.
Mr C can see
that niggaz haiku as well
haiku of ghetto
CJ: Irony.
Mocking faults, I erred myself.
How embarrassing.
Now now kids, don't fight,
or the Colossal Eric,
will sit on your head
you spelled my name wrong
do it one more time and i
will sit on your head
i edit haiku
back from the dead like rode kill
so just chill back, yo
my haikus be phat
my syllables add up tight
don't freak with my flow
oh how my style flows
oozes into your carpet
you need Oxy-Clean
gonna rock the mic
leave the haiku wanting more
MC Zombie love
Antidisestab
lishmentarianism
chill back wit' dat shit
don't try to follow
all my haikus be mad tight
tight like your mom, kid
Look, look what I did.
Edited my post wrong it seems.
Now Eric, who's the fool?
This is ironic.
I didn't follow the rules.
Go ahead, sit down
Esseb is a fool
For none but a fool commits
crime of double post
Chris weeps with sadness
For now he pays more money
With each double post
Poor house he lives in
No updates for AGS
Community Death
lads I'm rejoicing
Robert Redford has returned
third part downloading
Let the children keep
On and on with the rhythm
My heart swells with joy
Haiku brings the peace
To the forum once again
People's words mean more
"People's words mean more"
Ha ha, looks like I said 'swords'
Indeed, I like swords
Imagine Haiku
In ads for Monkey Island
More people would buy
Somewhere deep in the
Caribbean, a young man
Becomes a pirate
A hypocrite be
Las Naranjas, who corrects
While himself erring
I am bored by this...
I invent a new format.
I call it "Fahkyu"
It starts with a ten syllable sentence.
The next line's one syllable shorter.
And so on until you reach 1.
It's longer than a haiku.
Ergo, more expressive.
Unless you're stalling.
To reach the end.
Almost there...
Ready...!
There.
heh, this stuff sucks ass
five seven five my fat ass
look guys i made one!
m0ds
i await mittens
because it will be most fun
or just f**king shit
sorry, pardon me
my potty mouth prevailed
i think i'll drink milk
that will wash it out

oops did it again!
you are probably not pleased
i cannot help it!
i'm just a poor boy!
i'm from a poor family!
he's just a poor boy
from poor family
sorry i'll stop singing queen
because its night time
and now off to bed
where i can have lots of fun
oh, and masturbate
:)
m0ds
Who uses ten syllables? That's stupid.
I do like my hiakus like my forums
to Conform and be distracting.
This silliness has to stop
A hiaku is better
Then what you made up
What did you say?
A Fahkyu?
Bless you
Thanks
:P
Evenwolf above
Obsessed with phallus of swords
has been himself fooled
and pity the foo
who abandons perfect form
for kitcsch novelty
you are now disgraced
keep the celestial form
as heaven mandates
Making a seven-
teen syllable sentance and
splitting it's cheating.
What is more graceful?
How about seperate lines?
No random splits here.
Speaking of splitting,
It's time for my ballet class.
I must be off. Ciao.
Oh, just one more thing...
Haiku is Japan's finest
(cartoon pr0n aside)
This I think is neat,
A cool thread to remember,
But needs more volume
Helm's haiku echo's
Eurotrash Dj's haiku
all dance and volume
yet I will make thanks
for it has shed light for me
on haiku dance mix.
Ha ha ha ha ha,
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha,
That was funny Oranges.
We can dance if we
Want to, Leave our friends behind
Like Las, who sucks balls
I hope you all aren't
serious when you dis Las
give it a break now.
Oh, the agony!
Robert Redford three is done
I am still at work!
Oh Shit! Fucking Hell!
I who wrote kickass haikus
see it be missing
All lines, as reply
to haiku ruler Ghormak
evapourated!
God dam this browser,
I will bloody rewrite it
for your eyes only:
------------------------------------
God dammit, Ghormak!
Using five syllable word
as haiku ending?!
Ingenious and
simply unsurpassable!
How can we top that?
What's left to use is
onomatopoethic
words as "bbrrrml" and "prawn"
nobody likes me
i am foreign to the games,
all the boys will laugh
but i post anyway
i cannot resist genious
you are all greek gods
my name is jess fink
the eric belongs to me
please don't hurt his butt
Sorry, eric's girl.
Damage is already done.
Apply bandaid now.
Hahaha, you fool!
his ass are belong to us
Helm ate the left one..
Tho', I am not greek,
but god - yes, yes, that is true
the name is Cthulhu
Problem is, I wonder
is Cthulhu two syllables
or can it be three?
Because if it is
I fucked up the haiku good
Such a horrid shame
I think it is two,
but have Helm grunt it for you.
He is good at that.

Less wet animals.
Like bunnies and deer
Or perhaps some sort of bird
Like a fat chicken.
Fat chicken in a

Now to cook and eat the eggs.
What a bird-filled meal!
Quote from: Ghormak on Thu 09/01/2003 08:33:30Dear LasNaranjas,
that was a very good post.
Educational.
But this has six sounds!
See: Ed-u-cay-shi-on-al
You have misplaced awe.
Eric my outburst
was because the thread didn't stop
I did not disrupt
I'm not veteran
in the art of the haiku
Patronize me not
Poor poor flippy_d.
He pronounces it all wrong:
Ed-u-cay-sho-nal!
But do not blame him,
since he is American
Can't help it you see.
Esseb misinformed
I am not American
Not by a long shot
I am a Britain
Like CJ and Mark Lovegrove
You are in the wrong
I pronounce it right
tis Ed-ju-cay-shi-on-nal
Say it slowly and hear
Can you hear it now?
Remember the syllables
are word parts, not sounds.
You say shio-on-nal
very fast and it sounds like
I am in the wrong
Pronounciation
is harder than it looks, yes?
You will learn in time*
*this is all I could think of, no offence intended.
Pointless posts are cool! 8)
I really love posting them. :)
Oh yeah, the bandwidth. :(
Let's not fight Flippy,
even though you say it wrong.
Peace prevails in here.

My animation
Teacher thinks that Eric is
A girl. Ha ha ha.
Edit:
I forgot the word
"Teacher". Silly me. Without
it, it didn't make sense.
Cap'n Pestilence
Your animation has thought?
I am quite confused
This is quite normal
I am always confuséd
I twist syllables!
To make the words fit
I use punctuation
If it goes or not
I like haiku thread
It reveals great joyfulness
It is very zen
I believe it is
modern readers who added
these rules to haiku.
few masters used the
"seventeen syllable" rule
no ancient artist
Since "enlightenment"
formalism has reigned supreme
the rules of writers
Still it can be fun
Revelry in written rules
perfection of words
perfection of choice--
words of ancient mastery
always was the way.
Today's translations
miss so much of the old words--
caligraphy too.
Below are some of my favourite old haikus--missing "red wheelbarrow" of course, on which so much depends--read them carefully, word by word and then line by line to get the full affect. Only two authors come to mind.
BASHO
viewing the moon
no one at the party
has such a beautiful face
where's the moon?
as the temple bell is â€"
sunk in the sea
chrysanthemum's scent
in the garden a worn-out sandal
just the sole
without turning
into a butterfly, autumn deepens
for the worm
"I'm tired of kids."
for the person who says this
there are no flowers
lightning ~
into darkness plunges
a night-heron's cry
SHIKI
wet feet
of a sparrow along
the covered way ~
Oh Jessica Fink
Get Eric to marry you
and lose dreadful name
Feurstein over Fink
and not in a lewd fashion
superior name.
Witness you this thread
How far reaching it has grabbed
One who claims we gods
I kneel before you
As god myself bewildered
But witness my skills:
Here's the tricky part
If your mother only knew
Bah boom bshhh bah boom
Eric will like it
Inside jokes can isolate
Yet others rejoice
Redwine is my devil
sexy in her ways
make me Believer...
-Loop
(ps: this is NOW a sticky bitches...)
I say naught but "Garda!"
To evenwolf's pur'le taunts
set him up the bomb
eat slippery treats
then in Soviet Russia
use "ares" and not "is"
Pathetic in jokes
are the domain of the weak
thus "Death by hentai!"
Ah much peace I see
Except for those who make war
haiku brings gladness
Format is not strict
can be syllables of less
in lines not even
as long as less than
seventeen then it is good
but this way I like

"Gangsta Haikus be the shit!"
let me school you some
Gangsta Haikus or
otherwise known as "G.H."
they are more than me
way back in the day
10,000 B.C., Japan
some whack shit went down
they had slaves and shit
slaves and monsters and Swamp Thing
but mostly the slaves
Japanese people;
"Writing haikus is hard! Slaves!"
Japan was lazy
So the slaves did it
G.H. came from the ghetto
(secret Japan ones)
so I keep it real
for all my oppressed brotha's
and oppressed sista's
this one's for you guys
to Yi Pin and to Chim Cham
peace out, sucka-san

There once was a thread based on haiku
But nigga speech came, so fakyu
And try as they might,
no one got it right
But they continue to type... blah blah baiku
Who feels they do right
To soil my lakes and rivers
Men abide own laws
I the storm, I watch
Man he ignores nature's will
Justifies actions
Respond I in force
And man he rejects my plea
Thrashing wind and rain
Cunning or naive
Be man to neglect my call
For thunder is near
Zenful as it is
Haiku is no more than prose
With senseless format
On the other hand
I cannot freely write prose
Without senseless form
Be that as it may
Some people express themselves
With or without sense
Nevertheless
Expression is the best tool
With sense on your side
Despite all of this
I want to burst from my shell
And break the laws of form
:D
Beware the police
That busta cap in yo' ass
If you break haiku
Five seven five
Only sylables aloud
Else you not haiku
Other forms are hard
I.E. Septerania
If I spelled that right
Certain number beats
Last words always changing 'round
It's hard to describe
Limmericks are hard,
With aliens from venus,
Often are naughty
I like the haiku
So even, never changing
So I'll stick to this
I need not remind
your poor weary soul
that you may just...
I shouldn't tell you.

On snowy bridges
I stand alone with no warmth.
Hold me till summer.
A mouse creeps to me.
It is white as soft snowflakes.
I watch it run south.
Pretty mouse so soft,
Why did you leave me to die
In such a cold place?
When my spirit flies,
I will look over the fields
And see falling snow.
It looks beautiful.
Children play and build snowmen.
So damn innocent.
Stay that way, children.
Don't stand alone on a bridge
And die like I did.
The kids see DG
They bombard him with snowballs
He slips on mouse poop
He falls in water
He becomes an iccicle
he strives no longer
Simplicity. War.
the sound of splitting skulls at
the painted doorsteps
Do you think anyone,
anyone at all will care?
They will all be dead..
Nor can anything,
anything alter the path -
due to the suburb
Sacrifices are
still welcome, but only if
someone else does them
Is there anything
Belsebub can accomplish
that has not been done?
I guess not, yet still
a sense of hope in vast plains
a silver lining
Afterwards, chop chop
it is forgotten - faded -
dogs eat what is left

I have to point out
Haiku is pronouncéd
With three syllables :P
Those darn Japanese
Three syllables? That's just great.
Two would've work fine!
Hi-ee-koo? Huh-eye-koo?
Ha-yee-ku, is the
Closest approximation
Yes, darn Japanese
Sorry to nick your

To prove my IQ.
....Jesus died for you...
You've been cleansed by his blood to
become dazzling white.
On a tree He hung
With nails in His hands and feet
Because He loves you.
Search your heart and soul.
Do you feel the emptiness?
...Let His Love fill you...
When this is all gone,
And our lives just pass away,
Before Him you will kneel.
Confess Him as Lord
That you may come to know life
And not live in death.
There's so much to say...
Love the Father, Love the Son
Love the Holy Ghost.
And Love your neighbor
And the Love you seek, you'll find.
He's waiting for you...
The Eternal Love,
Peace, Blessings of Jesus Christ
be with you always.

little flame hovers
squeeze bottle that's lit now
behold nifty fireball
i have fun with flame
if my camera
is somewhere in this damn room
i'll post pretty pics :)
edit: I post this
before reading C.L.'s thread
callous I am not
Writhing tenticles
Cthulhu stirs in his sleep
Madness incarnate
Shub-Niggurath,
The Goat of the Thousand Young,
Looks like a tree but isn't.
Distant points of light
Yog-Sothoth is the gateway
Sanity, the toll
The Unspeakable,
Have you seen the yellow sign?
Chosen of Hastur.
I possess knowledge
of scary fiction as well.
But I will not tell.
Footsteps in your dream
Outer Gods dance in your mind
Ideas flourish there
Enternal mockery of humanity,
The Prowler in the Darkness,
Nyarthnalothep.
Dark, howling madness
Hunger without direction
Azathoth rules all.
Long brown grass through snow.
The shore of the frozen lake.
Leafless linden loom.
Formless Spawn dwell,
The temple of Tsathoggua,
Don't turn on the flashlight.
Nyarlathotep,
the soul of the Other Gods
and their messenger.
Death has been bested,
Raised Uppe from essential salts.
Can ye put it Downe?
I prefer Ghorms words.
Oh, his words of doomy doom.
Ah, Those doomy words.
Yes, I know that I,
Uses doom a lot, but screw you!
You doomy doomer!
Realise your insignificance,
To the cosmos, and infinity,
In dreams Faugn speaks.
Doom doom doom doom doom,
Doom doom doom doom doom doom doom.
I beat you, Visti.
Aha, Fuzzpilz! Dog!
You've stolen my doomy doom.
Therefore you must pay!
I will stomp on you,
with my mighty booty boots,
Till you're only dust!
Then watch me as I,
Carry you out to my toilet,
and flush you down there!
Yours weak haiku,
Not disparate enough,
Sequences glaring.
Folly! Empty words!
Void are your threats and vain. Ha!
I fear you not, Dane!
Please! You make me laugh!
Listen here, for I kid you not!
Helm wears nothing. At all.
As for the fuzzy,
He obviously has no clue.
Look! His avatar is blue.
So it is a war,
pains to see it come to this,
Visti will bite dust.
Quote from: Helm on Wed 15/01/2003 21:20:39So it is a war,
pains to see it come to this,
Visti will bite dust.
before giving dust
you must master your haiku
flashlight is two beats
It may pain you now,
But just wait until I have,
Severed your spine.
So, when you're lying there.
Think about the birds and bees,
And other happy thoughts.
Use it very well,
Might be your last chance to scream,
Until m0ds' penis finds you!
Yakspit no pointers,
Form is as free as the mind,
Stick to anthems sir.
Visti, form so off!
'Tis five seven five again
Six it is right out
Peaceful is haiku
Not a tool of warmongers
'Cause that's just silly
Abandon this war
Or speak to you I shall like
Yoda speaks often
Anger leads to hate
Hate leads to fear, fear leads to
Suffering- Yoda
Why am I obsessed
With Yoda of Star Wars Fame
He's a cool Muppet
Dragonrose, that's true!
I won't do it again, man!
For Yoda I obey!
It is truly sad
to see japan's Haiku used
for goth poetry
Goth poetry? Where?
I believe the subject was Love-
craft. The spooky man.
Goth poetry? Where?
I can't find it in this thread.
Here's a goth poem:
"O MY BLACK3TS SOUL
I FEEL TEH SUICIDAL
BECAUSE I HATE YOU"
What is missing there?
The red-on-black colour scheme
and but little more.
Edit: Curse you, Dane,
curse you to death and darkness,
thief of my first line!
Lovecraft send deep ones,
Eat you right down to the bones,
Mistake you make only once.
hey visti thats mean!
leave my penis out of this!
its busy and big.
!!!1111 m0ds
I am mistaken
Lovecraft, Gothic, whatever.
Still sounds self absorbed :D
Shut up all!You are
making no sense,You gotta
stop, when the beats commence!
No self when it's nigh
The almighty Azagthoth,
The piper commences.
Mountains of Madness
builds up like a hurricane
then just collapses
Then Randolph Carter
has sex change in future
name: April Ryan.
Now for the battle!
Ha! Let loose those dogs of war!
bathe me in their fire!
I'm on the home front
for hell hath no fury like
a non combatant
I will eat the dogs!
Wait, I am dog! What the?
I am canabal!

A question haiku
For all who have written here...
Who's used their fingers?
I, for haiku used
voice recogniton software
veer "e" Ack you rate?
The man of oranges;
Haikus, I see he enjoys.
Mind's battle with words.
LOLOL
OMG LMAO
WTF!!! J/K
I must must go out now
you might not hear again
from old psykikme
Goodbye Dear Psy, Sir.
May the day come when we meet
in Eternal Bliss.
God Bless You always
With Love, and Peace and Joy through
His Son Jesus Christ.
It is a good fact
I will grow old here e're one
I have decided
I cannot leave now
I must make more strips
comic srips that is
wow, this thread is big
that reminds me of something
yes, my toilet seat
m0ds
You poor sons of whores.
Loud but loveless - powerless.
The truth lies deeper
Now eternal hell
brought upon man like
a rusty tin can
It will cut you up,
poison you with its content,
devour your soul
Shot with black popcorn.
Bleeding girlish hairstyles or
mnemonic intrails
Do not rely on
superstitious mocks
or divine beliefs
In the end, THE end,
You will stand alone, equipped
only with your wits
In the end, nothing,
NOTHING will matter but you!
You and your loved ones!
A solemn promise
and yet jack-knifed in your back..
Why not fuck it all!
Whatever that means.
(let's take turns doing lines now. next post can have seven syls, then the next can have five, and so on.)
man, It does not
Thread killing is wrong,
You post subpar replies,
Haiku will prevail.
The bandwidth aside...
Bandwidth statement wrong
Of haiku, Chris Jones approves
Fear not the haiku
Single statement post
Is not what thread is about
Thread about Haiku
Continue haiku
And be blessed always and ever
With haiku-y joy
God, forgive the weak
of mind who forsake haiku
they are lesser men.
Forsake perfection
for mire of anarchy
mud and not crystal
Haiku is the path
To inner peace of the mind
And the body too
thou shalt take up arms?
'gainst such force as the above
you oppose CJ?
Revelations time!
your seas will be turned to blood
and your blood to brine!
Pretty words you speak;
Knowledge and wit you profess;
An empty battle.
The mind's a jester;
The heart is the warrior;
TAKE ARMS, MEN...WITH LOVE!
Lover or fighter;
A lover and a fighter;
Fight only with LOVE;
The LOVE from above;
Unending, unwavering
TRUE, BEAUTIFUL LOVE.
The LOVE of Jesus,
be in your hearts, minds, and souls,
forevermore. Amen.
Hmm... WonderLady
You mention Jesus a lot
More than He Himself! (http://www.agsforums.com/yabb/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=3345)
Robots are coming...
a million steel feet clanking.
They will crush us all.
Who invented them?
I want to kick him, hard.
He deserves crushing.
Mindless, cold, empty,
Nearing, buzzing drones;
Programmed to destroy.
Beware, Dear Fuzzpilz,
For one day you may meet them.
LOVE is your armor.
Stop, WanderLady.
This thread is not a good place
for serious thought.
Light entertainment -

"Light entertainment -
though with a dash of culture -

Aye, entertainment -
Mine with a sense of purpose -
To culture you, here.
Of clay we are made.
NONE greater than the other
Wrought by THE LORD'S hands.
A Loving Artist
Molding, shaping, creating -
A True Art Master.
Religious or not
It isn't bad poetry
So each to his own
We are created
With penis and vagina
The sperm and the egg
This clay you talk of
A pumpkin patch I was told
We came from the sea
May lightning strike thee
Who blaspheme under a tree
With a kite and key
Dearest Trapezoid,
The LOVE is not mine alone,
So to you I give.
But not mine own LOVE
do I give. Heavenly LOVE.
Pure, True, Loving LOVE.
From the Goddess' love
and God divine come mankind.
Christ mere prophet but-
Wisdom is truly
divine in origin, why
claim only godborne?
Man too makes many
wise thoughts, of love and hate. Sad
that some think man can
only know murder- sin.
Jesus was Man, Man is d'vine.
Pest'r not with relig'n.
apostrophe make
2 syllable into 1.
Push rules for much fun :)
wait, I am confused
for love is not my armour
it is my amour
but bad puns aside
all we put into haiku
becomes radiant
---edit---
Christ, can't Sri Lanka
Run between the wickets well
billions of run outs
Now, it is time for me
to beat the record
and put more lines
than EXPECTED in a HA-I-K-I-U
E-R-R , did i spell that right...
Czar, cease and desist
your non-Haiku sentences
for we're on a roll
Las you will concede
that Sri Lanka kick your ass
in Ball and Wicket
Ass, Ball and Wicket?
Chris must have the hots for Las,
but I can't blame him
I must here concede
The wanderer's prose is good
obsessed though she is
I can see the light
it shone in me long ago
empty words of men
have been put away
in favor of a good heart
God is in us all
Wiccan I am not
but similar in thought yes
find spirit in all
banging head against
a wall can seem like progress
until the head breaks
No enmity I
have for you or all the like
but redundancy?
Repetition is
the work of man I am told
like a scratched record
Ah, noble Yakspit,
One learns by repetition
Or one's art be null.
Should not LOVE repeat?
It's what we seek, what we need,
And mine I give thee.
Unconditional.
Life giving, life saving LOVE
Given from above.
wiccan I be not
but sometimes I tire of same
message of hope- Christ...
Always always Christ.
i grow deaf, which is not good.
Forgive outburst, friend.
Beloved Bruised one,
My inner man cries for thee
with tears and longing;
That your bruise be healed,
LOVE and TRUTH, to you, revealed.
ALL is forgiven.
If only it were
as simple as she can claim
her faith is not bad
love is, of course, nice
treating all with compassion
what a nice idea
this elixir, love
hope to all it may well bring
but there is a catch
too many speak of
this drink and then hand you a
drinking glass broken
this vessel of love
made by hand of man cannot
be therefore so pure
people point at me
there is a sinner in him
and they cast a stone
there are some that say
this is not what we declare
they lie from cold hearts
cynical I be
but my skin is thick only
by flames of the tongue
Quote from: WanderLady on Thu 16/01/2003 05:26:58A question haiku
For all who have written here...
Who's used their fingers?
To all you lamers
who use fingers to type out,
for I used my nose.
For last night, carried
away went the girl with tight
straps keeping me bound.
The girl did leave when
ropes tight and wallet empty
No pants have I on....
So now here I sit
praying my friends come find me
'fore my parents do.
It is as you say
but not at ball and wicket
but a greater thing
Australian team
loses at a fatal point
they are all just cunts
Lehman we not need
Five games he will miss woo hoo
Deservedly so
The team needs young blood
Spill now or rot progression
They will fill the shoes
Your flames do not burn.
Waxed soft is my heart for thee;
LOVE is my desire.
This cup that I bring,
I have had a drink myself;
The cup remains full.
I did not fill it.
I only wish to share it.
As HE, so do I.
This talk of cricket
overwhelms and confuses
game an enigma
Yakspit not alone,
For in Greece it is also,
Silly laughingstock.
What I cannot see
is how religion seem to
stand above logic
Thou shall not kill, no?
Jesus - a genious -
praised the love in us
Love one another,
now this is the essence!
I don't need Jesus
I can love without
Jesus, Allah, Jehova
or another name
Why die for others?
Instead of dying for you?
WHY KILL FOR BELIEFS?!
Selfdefence my ass!
all is politics - all is.
Faith is like God - dead...
I am ahead! - I am
advanced! I'm the first mammal
to wear pants (ah-huh)!
I am in peace (yeah),
with my lusts - I can kill 'cause
in God I trust (yeah)!
I bash my head hard
with this heavy red brick
for no purpose
people die far away
while we all think of war
as a meaningless joke
you can run away
I won't run away now though
Because I have peace
You need to meet me
Yeah, my name is chocolate bob
because I have peace
howdee howdee yep
hearts of fire yep yep yep
because I have peace
Heartless, I wait
Peace again ran away
No peace for me here
I do not like haiku
It has too much rules
Yet only one
Seventeen sylables
Squeezing thoughts into
a tiny little space
I wish I could see
Why Sri Lankans cannot run
run out yet again
It's embarresing
to see them gently loping
to Bales falling.
I am dying for sweets
I will go get some chocolate
bye bye everyone!
Enjoy your candy
Hign in caffeine it is
and high in sugar
Soon, it will get
to your intestines and
do it's evil work
Mha ha ha ha ha
Plotting to take over AGS
Soon, I will rule
can a haiku rhyme?
my poems do, all the time
I hope it's no crime
I don't understand
just what makes Haiku so grand
stop it, I demand!
Read some Shakespeare please
look in some anthologies
look in libraries
But wait a second!
Just recently I reckoned
that Haiku beckoned
I'm hooked I tell you
I just want to continue
though it feels askew
my rhyme is no ace
and my poem has no pace
I am a disgrace
Stop it, I mean it!
Anybody want a pea
...nut? uh. um. er... yes.
Andy you please us
methinks that was fabulous
you will make a fuss
angry was Gold's day
he yearned to kick Kikme's dick
when he found this thread
sublime and serene
filled his mind at this moment:
just some forgiveness
remembered the times
when as Fat Lolo fought with
Even, now good friend
good thread it was, zany
but flew away through past's gate -
destiny of all
where are the good games
AGS-made, long ago,
they gave you much joy
now only the words
on LGM's list he made -
this their asylum
now this is the same
with men who end on some lists
of dear deceased
no! memory still
the feelings they gave to you -
does this justify?
cheesy my words are
but I feel good writing them
thank you, bless this thread
and I want to say
that Yak Spit, though foul his name
I hold dear inside
Obituary
Gold writes one for AGS
whilst I lie weeping
I cry for the lost
I cry for what cannot be
I cry for CJ
I cry in the past
I cry in futures to come
I cry, weep and moan.
Cry not AGS
A new generation here
to pick up the torch
whether all alone
or in joint projects maybe
new games will appear
I am very sure
that my dedication will
allow me a chance
to realize my dream
of making an adventure
out of my small head
a list of tasks first:
custom-paint a case for a
kid, like Yu-Gi Oh!
clean my damn-ed house
of the filth that the slobs leave.
And publish a book.
Then I hope I can
see my dreams soon brought to life.
but I forget script.
--
My name it is foul
but known by it I am now
can I lose it? no.
Mha ha ha ha ha
Mha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Mha ha ha ha ha
Lame, I know it is
But forgive me for I am
Bored. Stupid shoe
it is lost. Where
Could it be? In the fridge?
Sasha is scared.
No sign of it still.
It escapes me again.
I'm switching to boots.
Sashasatan HA!
I only have one shoe pair.
never mind heh heh
Yakspit fills my heart
with great joy o'er leaping
I embrace the morn
the morrow brings hope
the sun casts expectations
I await the night!
Day after day I sit
And post things here instead
of making a game
What's the use of this
forum? I waste time
here. I'm tired.
maybe I should
pull myself together.And try
to finish a game.
sashasatin, you
don't do haiku right u see
5 words for the first
7 words for 2
and 5 words again for 3
do you understand?
It's beats, you fool
Not words, oh no, not words, Haiku
will hate you now. Bye
Since neither of you
follow the rules that you set
I laugh at you both
kikme laughs so much
Las cannot do anything
I need need to practice
I care not about
rules. Stupid rules. pah!
Who needs those things, hmmm?
But its not haiku
now, you need to learn them right
five, seven, five, There!
Ah but haiku is
merely limited to less
than seventeen beats
the five-seven-five
format is accepted now
as a sort of law
this is not the case
check in references if
you do not believe
I stay with this way
because the limitation
is more challenging
haiku post works,
but now it's so long a time,
these words hovered here.
Could we now move this,
as a fly from spider's web,
unstuck & releas'd?
Oh, please don't kill me
for such sacraligious thoughts.
Reeds bow with the wind.
Swiming in despair,
Despondency overwealms,
The soul only sighs.
and;
Light kisses the land
Dewdrops gather on petals
Dawn arrives once more.
I understand not
What Unilin just stated
but it sounded cool
Green toads chirp softly
Water drops fly when they leap
Golden light lingers
How long can this go?
Is it friend or foe?
I'll never know!
*Raggit accepts award for the dumbest rhyme of all time!*
Thread not about rhyme
Thread is about the RHYTHM
Non-haiku is bad
Do not block the flow
Using rhymes with no metre
Always is haiku
I just read a book
Of comics called "Get Fuzzy"
A cat did haiku
"I like catnip mice
That's why I bite their heads off
They're good for breakfast"
Haiku equals fun
Five seven five forever
Long live the haiku
Yet ANOTHER reason why I get the dumb awards!
Raggit, I remind
you, this is about haiku.
is "haiku" two beats?
tears running through
fingers cold, maybe someday
things will be better.
for now clenched teeth-SCREAM!
no vice can allow escape.
only weep, and wait.
Air shatters like ice
A squeal claws into the soul
Wind from departure
I did not see it
I could only give an ear
now my cat is gone
I KNOW!
Thats why I'm a moron! ;D
Goth Haiku, failure?
No, just baka. Totemo baka.
Not that frogs are great....
Look at me "ribbit"
I ares frog on lillypad.
I jump off and SPLASH!
*yes, I've lost the ability to count. I hang my head in shame. I have brought dishonor to my family. I am preparing for exile in the mountains*
Since this thread has less
posts than the picture-post thread
we prize vanity
We would like to see
Ourselves and those around us
More than use our minds
Don't mind me you guys
This thread has not been here long
Just helping my spawn

Watishi wa Esseb desu.
Nihongoga wakkarimas.
Ok, so the syllables aren't 5-7-5, but it's Japanese at least.
Raggit, listen here
Speak haiku, or leave this thread
Never to return
The time for love is
Gone now from the surgery
What does this mean, eh?
Squinky, it is clear
what your haiku entails
clitorectomy
Las VB Bitter
Should be LBW
Las Bitter Water
Warney the druggie
Is out of World Cup Cricket
Clitorectomy
I like Clitoris
They are quite necessary
Should remain intact
I meant no harm
just crap that spilled out me
clitorectomy....
This thread should not die
Cool crap and its fun to read
why are women weird?
Looks like I forgot
To replace the V with L
But it's rectified
Timositys avatar is hot
maybe too much so i'll put it in a pot

Oh my god
this is so dumb
that i dont know what to write in sand
I know, classic haiku
Green sakura pentals
fly like snow in night.
Great goog'ly moog'ly!
Ever heard of a haiku?
That's what WE'RE doing...
Perhaps I shouldn't
Try to haiku so hard
because I am crap....
My Avatar will
Change all the time because it

The next it is chicks...
A multi meaningly word

Hey rabbit with fangs
See how one can change subjects
within the same post
:P ;)
Emptiness in words...
Yet, how else shall we speak? *sigh*
Seeking the right ones.
To see and to feel...
Speak with the eyes; with the heart.
Inner man screaming...
the decision made:
I shall have eternal sleep.
suicide notice.
Heh, been wondering,
"How to go about it, eh?"
Deffinately blade.
Not very zen, true.
Not feeling zen inside.
turmoil harsh and cold.
Can't sleep can't eat can't
think. Bad choice? Yes. Selfish? Yes.
But I must have rest.
Negativity
Too hard to deal with proper.
I guess I can't help it,
I'm a failure at
everything: life, female, child...
Haiku note.... been done?
Death not coming yet,
not time. But despair controls.
I'm weak. I'm shamed. *sigh*
Death's kiss would be sweet;
And there is no fear of it.
Only fear what's next...
I fear not being
tree in hell, devoured by
harpes. god's wrath
means little to me,
as does the concept of sin.
Leave religion out.
Such fear of truth here.
Death already lingering.
The time is fleeting.
Perhaps I am wrong
Most would prefer hell to the
void-Oblivion
Wouldnt one get bored
Of perpetual nothing
Or forever damned?
-------------
Well, what do you know,
I am getting burned daily.
Whoop-de-doo. Surprise.
After awhile,
My mind would grow numb with it,
No bothering here.
It feels good to cry
From the heart tears trickle down
Sorrow brings much joy
It feels good crying?
Maybe I should try it more.
but without reason.
Random fits of tears
could bring joy into my life
as I confound all
Tears need be heartfelt
Their truth bring welcome (release)(relief)
Dementia abounds
When dementia
surrounds us, should we ask if
we are the sane one?
To question our mind
to compare with all others
This makes us robots
Crying is not weak
but question your sanity
if it's done daily
If it makes me laugh
thinking of sanity, is
that insanity
To chuckle or laugh
at popular opinion
is Sane at its best
Read Pratchett's "Eric"?
Hell is reduced to boredom -
much worse than torment.
Haiku eases mind
Insanity takes a rest
God Bless You Yakspit
I have come back here
A G S has me by balls
I cannot resist
sorry for leaving
I will not do it again
I feel like a jerk
Hence my signature
I am now a giant rat
I'll keep fleas to me
Welcome back Dmitri
But I ain't good in haiku
So I will just pass
I am rubber you
are glue. What bounces off me
comes to stick on you.
Well, it works.... no real point to it....
Sorrow dampens one
How heavy the heart can be
But fire burns within
Darkness won't prevail
Light shines much too brightly now
Don't be afraid, child
How long ago I
Have let thread go unnoticed
It seems like a month
*Dmitri slaps you
you are a big poopy head
that should not happen
Is this one of the
biggest threads in
this forum ever?
Flippy D I see
That your name has three beats man
I think I messed up
I always thought,
the monkey island topic
was the biggest one
*does that work? I never tried this before*
To answer query
this thread has top posts
since pic thread was cut
no pun intended
in line above. this thread is
number 10 in views.
I wondered where this,
Had gone, dissappeared it did
here it is again
The sticky glue wore
Fell a long way, who will pay
we need super glue
Done it's time it has,
Now free to go, bless its wake
Goodbye, we will keep
The other day I
Removed it because noone
Had posted in it.
Wait, I'll post, I'll post!
Give me a second to think
of a good haiku!
It would be so sad
If this drifted away because
of "Girls who needs em?"
This thread will never
Disappear in the abyss
Of digital past
As long as Glod is
A member of this forum
He will tend and care
Alright, It will stay!
I only hope the stickies
Do not crowd the board!
people care only
when it is that which they have
is taken away
Remember Strikers
they are Brisbane's soccer team
with really shit crowds
but protesting march
sanctimoniously cried
we want to keep them
but they did not go
to any games afterwards
the whinging dickheads
ha ha ha ha ha
the irony is too much
ha ha ha ha ha
that was very crap
I must improve my haiku
It lacks quality
The beauty of it
quality is not as key
quantity is small
Say something inane
perhaps it is just a waste
but bandwidth is safe
Nose: itches and runs
Eyes water and joints all ache
God, I hate the flu.
I am sick and tired
Of this being sick and tired
I fear I must sneeze.
The lure of haiku
is like a vast mountain range
apon my shoulders
A long time i have
avoided this haiku thread
but now I give in.
Welcome to my thread
said the Yakspit to the fly
haiku will snare all
This magical thread
Has now passed 300th post
It lives forever!
Why, when the heart breaks,
does no one care to hear it?
...deaf to each other.
For Anatomy
and Physiology class
Exam on Monday
Know bones in body
All crests, facets, foramen
Notches memorized.
Cause each one has name
to be that more annoying
for aspiring
Doctors. and of course
know the lame disorders too.
Oh man, I LOVE THIS.
The hip bone's connected
to the rib bone and the rib bone's connected
to the arm bone.... ;)
A lame commercial
with that song playing on it
was on right outside my
classroom right after
class, and now im going to
study with that song. ;D
Silly old Cahzar
Got the poem format all wrong
You suck at this game :)
La dee da dee da
La dee da dee da dee da.
Oh, I am amused.
Have you noticed, oh
AGS haiku masters
Who make this thread bloom...
How ignorant ones
Enraged by beauty of verse
Publish bullshit here?
Their minds of envy,
Hearts ridden with monkeyrie
Their pens do babble.
It would appear now
that it is a newcomer
let us be more lax
My stern YakSpit friend,
your heart needs not be heavy;
half-serious was I.
Well, joke poems are still
better than seventeen syll-
able sentences :P
Maybe you are right
Long sentences are quite lame
bastardized haiku
--
I did some paint work
I was still stuck in haiku
so I left a sign
hang your coats on this?
Not a good notion - Wet Paint
A Wet Paint Haiku
This thread is quite long
I am new to this forum
You guys are insane
Sorry to bother
You all and your Haiku club
I'll write what I want
;)
Yakspits avatar
is greatly disturbing me
the moving eyeball
I will endeavor
to write something half decent
with the haiku rules
Conan O'brian
Has Robots that crap and stuff
It should be mentioned....
I contemplate
Understanding Kyuss I
like the Fauves
doing bad things
to popstar churls why do
I hate their bands?
I like laxatives,
I suck on them all day long,
CRAP! I need the loo! ;D
So, comes the ending.
The once loved Haiku thread dies.
Time to move on? Nooooo.
Hey, sweet little lamb
You have strayed from your green field
This way, to page One.
It is a pity
But we know all good things end
I will post here more
Don't be so morbid...
...Loss of sticky preserval...
...Doesn't mean jack shit :)
If anything trap
D G did this a favour
now we will not stop
The thread is unglued
Much like an AGSer
When AGS crash
--
The springtime is here
New birds bunnies and flowers
Where is cyanide?
Just remember friend
Not everywhere in the world
where spring bring warm temps.
Some don't like haiku
They all stand back and make fun
Alas they are dead.
Within the confines
of a dark secluded place
eyes bitterly weep
they are all alone
crying for the bitterness
of love and hatred
they are all alone
crying for passion and lust
envy and revenge
evil is the heart
which made these eyes start weeping
no one hears its pleas
happy is the face
which the world avidly views
it always will smile
grieving are the eyes
who the world does detest
they find no solace
that is my haiku
I will try harder next time
I will use action
I didn't even
bother to notice
this single thread
Since I thought
it was already
quite read
I didn't know
that it was
so cool
But that was
before
I started to drool
I'm a poet
that's right,
that's right!
So don't even
dare to start
a fight
I see this
is the first
thread ever
to pass the
13th major
haiku pages
I could hope
I will now
be accepted.
(Hee)
either you are good
or do not know the real rules
five seven and five
count the syllables
and the secret of haiku....
are forever yours
there is haiku that
does not conform to these rules
I do not know these
Haiku is not
the best
I can do
But I think
you know that as well..
You do too!
I'm serious here
trying to learn
Haiku... shit I'm going to burn!
Haiku I'm trying to learn
today. But I'm not able to to this
before upcoming wednesday.
I found this dummies for Haiku's
and I'm not that good
But I'll give it a try, with other words.
*** edit ***
I don't undertand
the meaning of Haiku
either.
It says it needs
five, seven, and five
but I see some using more or less
So this is what
I don't understand
Haiku rules? What's that again?
ignore the lamers
who do not abide the rules
five seven and five
that is the haiku
there is not one substitute
five seven and five
when time is on side
try to use the haiku right
it is rewarding
Your sig confuses
An Iqu quote with my name
Saw this before where?
Back on icq
Our names appear within < and >
I know not who said
I thought it Yakspit
But my memory is bad
I will change my sig
you mean ICQ?
perhaps you are mistaken
IRC perhaps
shut up naranjas
I get confused easily
when both start with I
And was I quite wrong
Or did the original
sig have name Iqu?
no Iqu was not
in the original sig
you just misread it
Probably again
with the I thing we confuse
this haiku sense not
Iqu IRC
IMO and IRQ
Too many "I" things
Acronyms rule me
As a part of daily life
Not use? You're a n00b.
Shit I just noticed
This thread wasn't on page one
I revive it now
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
this; happy haiku
Felt need to express;
Putting thoughts into few words
Good for succinct man
god. i hate haiku's
to me they make little sence
they don't even rhyme!
I wouldn't make haiku's
not even if i got paid
cause haiku's are lame.
Eep! Haiku returned!
I thought it lost forever
Rejoice with metre.
You can't keep good threads
in the gutter - they bounce back
and stay forever
Forgot what rain was,
Now it has rained all week long,
We are still in drought.
It rains on the coast,
Never where we need it though,
El Nino control.
Oh my god eighteen,
pages that is,
and back i am-haiku ruiner
The Matrix is dumb
Matrix Reloaded sucks more
The third one will blow
The concept is old
The CGI is cheesy
The acting appalls
I incite teh flames
People say "TEH MATRIX RULES"
But I disagree
Haiku is teh fun
This line's seven syllables
And this one has five
Hey! I just noticed...
Dragonrose's sig quotes me.
How long's that been there?
I just noticed this:
I have Sam and Max disco;
Says: "By Trapezoid"
Got it from Kazaa,
but first heard it years ago.
Are you the artist?
If it's so, good job.
If not, forget about you.
I like cheese and beef.
I have sam and max
But I can't get sound, so crap
So I'm missing out
Sam and Max Disco?
Yes sir, that's my handywork.
Amazed you have it.
When did you make it?
I first heard it long ago.
It has many quotes.
Dissing the Matrix
Seems to be fad of the month
But it's not that bad
At least, I hope not
Or I will be wasting cash
If I go and watch
Good luck then, CJ.
Hope you get your money's worth,
but I sure didn't.
I made the Disco...
way back in year 2000.
I need a real life.
This thread is pleasing.
Haikus sooth me pleasantly.
Five-Seven-Five. Aaah.
Can I haiku now?
I severly doubt it.
Ah well, I can hope.
A valiant try
Flippy you've almost got it
One short on line two
Hmm. Severly
has four complete syllables
according to me
Maybe I should stop
speaking in a southern drawl
it's detrimental
Interesting point
I hadn't considered that
I'll let you off then
What does this mean then?
Can I have - in IRC -
Use of Roger back?
I know it was you.
it's all a plot, isn't it?
Trying to kill me!
Well, so maybe not
I have my theories though!
But I will keep quiet.
I never did haiku
I don't know if I know how
But worthwhile a try
The elder gods lurk
Awating constellations
Squiggly tentacles
I bet every person who read this topic's doing the "haiku-fingercount".
am I right?
haiku-fingercount
easy to use for stupid people
bright ones don't need to
You should have used your,
Fingers dude, you smart arse twat
keep it together.
Don't comment above
Your Haiku, be clever and
Haiku it, o.k.
Much Hostility!
Keep it calm in this long thread.
It's legendary.
I agree flippy
we don't need hostility
just many haiku's
You don't need fingers.
The numbers on the keyboard
go up to 0.
I must be stupid.
Trap's last makes no sense to me.
What's with the numbers?
This thread's surprising;
It brings out poets in all.
We are teh clevar.
When I think "haiku"
I think of Broken Sword 2.
There's a guy named that.
He's a crap actor
Who gets to play a pirate,
But George shows him up
Climbs up the pillar,
Finds treasure of Captain Ketch,
Treats us to cut-scene.
That game is quite good,
Not as good as BS1.
BS3 will rule.
I've got off-topic.
But then, in this thread, who cares?
This haiku is done.
Of Haikus in games;
I used one in "Gatitos".
So what about you?
This Thread has ups and
Downs Flippy, I was making
a point with humor.
It's just hard to get
The right tone unless you're
In My Head, full stop.
I've lived through the whole
Thread and participated
on many a page.
Calm I am even
When I seem hostile, rarely
ever am I cruel.
Re: my keyboard point
Why use your fingers to count
When you have these THINGS?
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0
The last time I checked
(about five seconds ago)
Fingers aren't numbered
Trap: my suggestion:
Follow your number system,
and check your third line.
The Edit button...
Affects other people's posts...
Turns them obsolete.
Damn you, Trapezoid!
You make me look like a fool!
My post makes no sense.
Last night was a blast
Cricket Presentation night
I got so Hammered
Picked up best bowler
For my team, trophy I got
Many drinks drunk I
Though I got a big
SURPRIZE, most unexpected.
More drunk drinks did
PLAYER OF THE YEAR
For the Whole Club, Large Trophy
Free drunks drinkededed
I Was Stunned, Shocked, Stoked,
Over the moon, Looney Tune,
Pissed as a maggot.
Unbelievable,
Moments like these are so rare,
Has not sunk in yet.
Congratulations!
That is indeed an honour.
Very well done, mate.
As for other point,
I did not detect the tone.
I apologise.
Thank you Flippy D,
Someone noticed one of my
Greatest Achievements.
Hosamov, kikme....
you are back sadly, I see
and you don't like me...
Boobly doo, I cry
why did I rhyme that stuff?
hell if I know man
Quicksand overwhelms-
And all the ropes being thrown
Are just out of reach
Wanderlady's new
She brings back old topics that
Had finished in June
She's been here awhile.
But she very rarely posts.
Following advice?
Time has come again,
when the Haiku may make ties
and bring us all close...
On the other hand,
olbies and newbies just may
battle forever.
Your choice, you decide.
Play a big part in our group
or just fade away...
Gen Gen conflicted;
Oldies boast maturity;
Harmony ruined.
Hopeful horizon?
Solutions have been proposed...
But is outlook grave?
Once friendly forum,
divided into factions;
The dumb and the smart.
Still active forum,
Jetisoned from existence;
Simply thrown away.
Options seem quite dire;
Neither would be pleasant;
Does a third exist?
Yes, indeed it does.
These haikus came far too late;
The best I could do.
This all sounded poo;
Opinion obscured by structure;
Bang goes my two cents.
What here can be said
That hasn't been already?
ALL seeking a place...
ALL want to be known.
ALL want to be loved and heard.
Want, need, love...so give.
It feels like a while
since I have seen these forums,
but now I am back.
I reformatted.
My hard drive is clean and pure,
PC not fucked up.
Haiku maybe help
Thread with legendaryness
It lasts forever
Wisdom through metre
This thread is very zenful
I have inner peace
Tick Tock, Tick Tock, Ti-
Time's wages distributed...
How much have you earned?
Why does the Haiku
make any old rubbish seem
utterly profound?
One two three four five
Once I caught a fish alive
Six Se'en Eight Nine Ten
Then I threw him back
again. Why did you let it
go? because it bit
my finger so. Which
finger did it bite? This li'il
finger on my right.
hee hee at you all
S S H that's funny stuff
haiku is so fun
Shouldn't haikus rhyme?
Maybe so but I don't know
yes I just don't know
Where do flowers grow?
Do you know? No I don't know
I think I'm stupid
This thread is the most
yes it really is the most
posted in of all
Haiku need not rhyme
That is not the point of it
It's a different art
Art, schmart. Organize
your ideas anew. Behold!
Everything makes sense.
twenty pages wow!
I must say this now: yes wow-
that's a lot indeed!
Three two one a tree
what to haiku about now?
I have no idea.
Grim Fandango is
oh such a wonderful game
Play it every day!
Twenty pages long,
That is way too much for me.
Lock it sayit I.
A new one is fine,
But can it be less gloomy?
This one made me sad.
No, don't lock this thread.
A new one would cause clutter
and messy forums.
Two and zero is long.
It is hard to follow now.
New we could follow.
I disagree, peer.
Whilst newbies should try this thread,
Don't have to read all.
Flippy_D is right
I only read two pages,
that's not two zero.
Haha this is great,
I am having so much fun
It comes natrally...
Wow! This is one of the longest threads in AGS Forums history!
Tsk tsk to mitar
Only use haiku greatness
That is this thread's thing
***
Plunged into darkness
Gotta love the big black out
Blame it on the States
States respond with speed!
"Nay! You northern guys did it!
It's not terrorists."
And so debate goes
While it is dark without lights
Candle sales are up.
Mitar: uncalled for!
Don't post here without haiku!
Mod, delete that post.
With power restored
You Canadians rejoin
For the merryment
remixor: I can't
For your post would then look dumb
I shall leave as is
king, we yelled at
Mitar for not posting in
haiku here. you must.
Any further posts
Not written in the style
Will be deleted
Damn! I was editing my post right when you deleted it!
I love AGS
I want new features CJ
To do list getting so long
EDIT:
while editing my post
somebody deleted it
don't post usless crap
This thread is stupid,
only a faggot replies,
this you can't deny. :D
Wait just a second,
I too have now replied,
Now I'm a faggot. :-*
mitar, such language
is crude and so unneeded
please tone it down
I get the hang of
this style the more I write it
Haiku grows on me
people reply fast
thread growing with many replys
people like Haikus
mitar, why so rude?
no one is a faggot
just don't reply then
Yesterday a game
of soccer I played the
team I faced was good
and mine was not so
our team was bested greatly
many goals were scored
disheartening it
was for I, the keeper to
to lose five to zero
You misunderstood,
It was only a bad joke,
Now lets all go smoke.
I am a faggot,
Which is a bundle of sticks,
I have defined.
Faggots are a food
Made of peas and also meat
Actually quite nice
CJ has weird tastes
Thats a strange exotic food
Who would name them that?
Anyway it's food
Why complain about its name?
because it's funny
It's called a faggot
Maybe I should stop this poem
A poem about food
You people are dumb!
Count your friggin' syllables!
Errors everywhere!
Five syllables here!
Seven syllables right here!
Five again, right here!
It's been dark of late:
Riding high...now hiding wry.
So very ashamed...
Errors in my script
Whatever shall I do now
Useless, bad scripter
What are you scripting?
Scriping can be fun sometimes,
One two three four nine.
Oh where is the mouse?
Thou has seen a mouse or not?
I am not a mouse.
Computer now is mine!
It is not a piece of crap
It is AMD
Old computer sits
Gathers dust, a useless thing
'Twas Pentium II
Only problem now
All files on old computer
Not joined to network
Game held up right now
Must transfer files, move to res.
Candace Grace: Run Hot.
Never thought that haikus
Could be so much addictive
Hence no posts in thread
Today is the first
Day i have looked in this thread
Thoughts of Haikus changed
I look at page count
And decide it's time to check out
What all the fuss is
Well haikus are fun
And easy i must say now
For i'm writing here
May this thread never die
Cos it is so long and cool
Would be a crying shame
Maybe i should go study
For my HSC trials
Are on tomorrow
Havnt studied enough
But i am lazy and dont
Feel like it right now
But mum gets angry
And shouts, for my lack of study
Oh well, i must go
May this thread live on
And live to a ripe old age
Of 1000 posts.
I'll try my first real
haiku that is, stop me not
only fools stop poets!
"Haiku" said James Bond.
The gadget maker replied:
"Pay attention, Bond"
I thought it had gone
But then someone brought it back
Damn you SSH
Oh Veryweirdguy
You should know by now that this
thread can never die
I just could not stop
myself from making the Q
joke in my last post
An amusing post
Is worth the ressurection
of a dying thread
Today the rains fall
My ambition is nowhere
Evil ennui
I keep making games
I don't finish all of them
I think that's sad man
new game I've started...
the other one is on hold
I should get a grip...
Polysyllabic
Polyunsaturated
Polly want cracker
The Hermocrates?
Fate of Atlantis parrot
Socrates? No, no...
Woot, the thread is back
I did say it wouldn't die
Hmm what to write now...
It's had longer breaks
Than this, just look at the dates.
Good to see it though
When I read all this
My heart starts beating faster
You are really good
I think I'm better
So read this thread of my hands
Look through this at me
A click here and there
The pointer points hotspots
It's an adventure!
Most games are bad
with alot of good graphics
but no good gameplay
Adventures are good
they will help you use your mind
Find the solution
We play games for fun
Though learning is important
Thats why I love it!
Thanks alot Chris Jones!
You have made our dreams come true
Mission Accomplished!
Well what do you know,
I will now bring this thread back
See it rise again
School is over soon,
There's just about three more days
Until i am free
Then i will have time
To make the best game ever
Well maybe. We'll see
Hey you there, Auhsor!
What type school do you attend?
Over in three days??
Mine has just started
Been going for 'bout a month
College, second year
In Australia,
School year is calender year,
christmas summer break
Auhsor may finish,
but still must have some exams.
Good luck there matey.
Yes, now 2 days left
The HSC is looming
After 3 weeks break
Good luck to anyone
Who is finishing year 12
Good old HSC
Ah, I understand
This info is new to me
So you're done now, right?
Yes, school is now gone.
I graduated tonight
It was pretty good.
Now mum and dad have
Banned me from computer, tv
Until exams over.
This ban starts next week
So don't expect to see me
Around for a while...

thanks Booz, for some poetry at last
Prior to you, it seems people have written more or less ordinary posts, only divided them into 5-7-5 lines :p
Haiku's don't suit me,
As they never seem to work
There are always flaws
Whats the point in this?
A long post about haiku's
Is it necessary
Haikus are a style,
of thinking and art, so yes.
it's necessary.
I, incidentally,
spot you used six syllables
in your last of last.
I also noticed
but i couldn't be bothered
thanks for noticing
What the hell is this
Goddamn thread doing back here?
It should be dead now!
you want poetry?
i'll give you some poetry
shit i'm out of space
i am a smiley
i can be happy or sad
never am i free

waiting for the time to pass
loneliness is slow

fooled - Who are you, Clown?
Getting up; falling

Stay down, Clown, stay down.
w00t, this thread is bumped!
Similar to a zombie,
it keeps coming back.
OMFG
Is this thread still going strong?
I had no idea.
(Read out acronym,
read it out loud for yourself
and it will make sense.)
Hey, you! Yeah, Ghormak!
Last line of your first poem:
I think it's too long.
"I'd no idea"
That might be a better choice.
"Idea" has 3.
I see what you mean
But I still am not convinced
that I was not right.
Difficult indeed,
It is not always easy
to hear syllables.
Aye-dee-ah is one,
Aye-dea is the other way.
Which one is correct?
(Do remember that
I am not native English
before you mock me.
I hope the response
to my haiku is not this:
STFU NOOB!)
Your point is well made.
Clearly, there are two options,
dialect dictates.
Now, a parting phrase...
Before you go, heed this well:
STFU N00B!!
holy friggin' crap
look at how long this post is
dang that's long I think
how did I miss this
I am so ignoranty.
I see the blue cow.
I broke my bat on
Billy's dumb stupid fathead
Some crap loser snitched.
Hey Bluke 4 x 4:
Your last post didn't make sense.
STFU N00B.
I have heard of crack
Some users may act insane
Oh, hello to bluke
YakSpit has a flag!
"Violence is our anti-drug"
(pronounce it vie-lence)
Don't say vie-o-lence;
If you do, my haiku's wrong
and I'll fuck you up.
Yeah, that was a threat,
But this is the internet,
so it's meaningless.
The flag is a bit
tongue-in-cheek but only for
those that saw the ads
To elaborate
I am able to skip drugs
instead I cause pain
Whoah, Look at this thread:
Started in January
Holy Crap, that's old
When we think it dead
We think it's gone and buried
Then BAM! It is there
So why does it live?
What is it with the haikus?
I now eat my foot.
Was your foot tasty?
Never mind, don't answer that.
Forget about it.
Someone woke Saddam
Said "Get up, it's time for school!"
He hugged his blanket.
So yak won't look dumb
Smart for me to make aware
Change my post I did
Of which words speak ye?
Those words that are very wise?
The eater of feet?
Look at his last post!
It bears news of an edit,
so he must mean that.
Now what did it say?
I certainly do not know.
It's a mystery!
"It's a Mystery"
A song by Toyah Wilcox
Just so you know, guys.
Evenwolf once spoke
He said thread should be retained
To save the wisdom
Ah, that's good to know.
Haiku aficionado:
does this describe Wolf?
Evenwolf needs more
We need more than that label
He is a Texan!
I am at a loss.
How 'bout "The Guy Who Makes Films"?
Not catchy enough...
If it helps any
I like how William Shatner
Was renamed 'Chairman' (http://lionsgateinfo.com/InfoSite/epk/ironchef/images/IRONCHEF_T006_300.jpg)
this is strange
do you read all the posts
of the longest thread
North wind doth blow
Are we adding random
such as the lilies
I make no sence do I?
New to this you are
Your mind haiku will soon free
Like Yoda I speak
Now I shall begin
My dissociated press
Who can understand?
***
Since to scream,
Until the heard of crack
Some forgiveness
Their minds of envy,
Hearts ridden with tight
straps keeping me believer.
"*Haiku*" said James Bond.
The girl with tight
straps keeping me bound.
I also noticed
It seems like a monkey
Out of space
This thread is quite fun
Except if you decide.
Play and builds up like a hurricane
then just cool biker *haiku*s
cannot be less gloomy?
This one made me saddam
Said "Get up, it's time forums,
but now I give in.
SSH, Gemm'lah!
You are doing it all wrong!
Learn how to haiku!
Five syllables here!
Now seven right on this line!
And now, five again!
Now you can do it
No more mistakes for you guys!
I like cheddar cheese.
Doors open, doors close;
Doors slam - Wham! Bam! Thank you, Ma'am.
Door number two, please.
My mind is a fog
Could be a lack of caffeine
I don't comprehend
WanderLady does
Often post in the spirit
of haiku at least
peanut butter, no jam
The dog's tail wags hungrily
Tubesteak for dinner
*edit*Forgive me
Pollution of this great thread
bad, naughty weasel
the five syllables
in your first poem portrayed
actually six
To correct problem
You could use the following:
"P.B. and no J"
Ah, this thread is back
It has been so many months
but it's still the champ
Just my oppinion
This thread sucks, sucks, sucks, sucks, sucks
Just my oppinion...
;D
(I think this doesn't suck that much, but I needed 7 syllabes... :P)
One, two, three, four, five,
Six, seven, eight, nine, ten, twelve.
Eleven, thirteen.
Farlander, If you
Want to add a comment, please
Haiku it, silly.
This thread means trouble.
Why do we have to Haiku?
It is so silly!
Why is it awake?
We should let this thread sleep now.
So long, disturbed posts....
Adventuregames are hard
to create for the first time
I tear my hair out
Sorry, can't help it
I had to post a haiku
My brain was in pain
Thread is kept alive
For narscisistic reasons
By a f***ing n00b
Lots of lolz @ Yoke.
I don't want to promote thread.
But damn - I sure am.
Why do I post this?
Am I a friggin noob?
I guess I must be...
No - it shall not be.
I am more than a noob....
I am the chosen...
I am all confused
BruisedWeasel is no newbie
Yet she brought this back
Bah! I am too tired
To work on my essay now
I will write haiku
I too should work now
Calling lots of people up
to get their address
But it is boring
Haiku takes my weary mind
to purple meadows
I can rest there now
doodeling in my sketchbook
puzzles for my game
Damn all the people
who did move without telling
I'll call after lunch
Dear Timosity
I haikued my comments
sum the syllabes
I put 5 on first,
Seven in the impair one
What's the problem, man?
:D
You're Haiku purist?
I like the japanese stuff,
mainly the shushi.
MY CAPSLOCK IS STUCK
I AM YELLING A HAIKU
PRETTY ANNOYING
Sorry for posting
but I can not stop thinking
about lovely words
You Friggin' Tricksta
Farlander, but I did prove
I can't count for shite
Well I really can
Count, but it was all in one
Line.............Snort the screen here.
Just So You Know
Only the Japanese system adheres
to counts of syllabics in words.
It is a precise image and idea in simple form
which defines the Haiku.
In the Chinese style I might say:
The sky was once empty but for sparse birds.
Your black text on this blue field.
The air now trembles with the beat of wings.
heh bspeers, i was just going to post about this, here's a haiku i wrote in a class i took:
The weather is turning nasty,
I'm saving snowmen in the freezer
edit: actually i thought there was no syllable counting at all in either way
Haikus make no sense,
They do not do anything useful
Please, stop this right now.
I'm just kidding, keep going.
This thread should be dead
There is no purpose at all
But to annoy me.
Am I just jealous?
That I cannot freestyle
funky haikus?
I think I'm counting
The syllables all wrong
But hey, what the heck.
I just found this thread,
Psychonauts is awesome, eh?
Not much to be said.
Conversation,
In Haiku, is stressful,
I have heart attack
The following comes
From a Stephen King book
It's called "It"
"Your hair is winter fire,
January Embers.
My heart burns there too."
Hey, man, where's the love?
Popularity, be not.
Haiku for outcasts.
-----
Overlooked, poor thread.
cobwebs and empty glasses
Let there be haiku!
----
Popular threads, go!
Profound musings, come hither!
Enlitenment blooms.
So that bruised don't cry,
Put this in popular threads,
we all get some sleep. ;D
Whoa, the thread returns
(again) That's pretty gnarly
Radical also
Haiku maybe help?
Again you return to us!
The thread that won't die.
Back to the Gen-Gen
Though to me you always are
A Popular Thread
Haiku addiction
Always to flourish and thrive
Long live the haiku
Much time between posts
So much has happened in here
Still a great place tho
Next verse after this
Will be more poetryness
Poetryness ain't a word
Life is great sometimes
Good times, bad times, it's just life
And thats not too bad
Wasn't poetry
That last verse. Oh well
Guess i tried a bit
Beer in my hand
The tasty malt
Toilet is occupied
This damn writers block,
Cannot think of a haiku,
oops! I just wrote one.
edit :
Green ant rides the tide,
Squirel adopts fighting stance,
Bottoms leak through sieve.
My opulent grace,
Stops only for Elephant,
His manners are nice.
The dandelions,
Scare with their hideous flame,
Wish Jesus was here.
What the hell just happened?
robot robot ro
bot robot robot robot
robot robot kill
It's falling quickly
I think people are tired
Of writing haikus.
auhsor: haiku falls
but then it will rise again
twenty five pages!
this thread cannot die
we've tried to kill it before
it always comes back
I am very bored
There's nothing to do
I lost the remote.

To wite a haiku,
Do you do five sylables,
Then seven then five?
There are other ways
But this thread's five-seven-five
It makes life simple
Japanese haiku
adhere to quite stringent rules.
But they're not too hard.
Traditionally,
five, seven, five, and that's it.
No more and no less.
Also, there's Tanka
five, seven, five, seven, then
another seven.
They are longer, but not much.
Just enough for one more thought.
The 'ku' in haiku
means a statement or a phrase.
where 'ka' means "a song"
About "Nihon-go",
It's a language of rythm.
one letter, one beat.
I speak, as you know
of the Japanese "Kana":
Phoenetic letters.
However, you see,
A true haiku should really
pertain to nature.
It's known as 'Kigo'
A reference to the season
the haiku takes place.
The season theme is
what makes a haiku "haiku".
without, it's just talk.
Not to say that one
Haiku is better than most,
just 'cause of the theme.
And lastly, by me,
A haiku I wrote last year,
Under my penname.
Aki no Matsu.
Ga, momiji wa mada,
ochinu mama.
(The end of autumn.
Yet the colorful fall leaves,
remain unfallen)
It is a pity,
The forum does not support
text in unicode.
The Space Pirate Caine
knows a lot about haiku.
He shows us all up
He be Japanese
He be native to these poems
Can write them good too.
I'm not quite native,
But I do live in Japan
and go to school there.

Look at me people
I can say many haikus
Like this next one here:
I will say haikus
For no good reason until
I do something else
Lots of these haikus
Are witty and very smart
Wait, no, that's not true.
I am so bored man
I just do this to kill time
I am still bored man
I think you should all read this:
"A Call for the Complete Elimination of Joke Haiku Production on the Internet: A Proposal to the Internet Community" (http://www.phenry.org/junkdrawer/haiku/) by Paul H. Henry.
It's true when you think about it. And as if to prove its point:
Indeed I have been
convinced by this article
not to write haikus.
Seriously though. Read it and feel thoroughly struck down by its awe-inspiring respect for Japanese art.
Forcast, I do see
with AGS 2.7
great games will there be
oh Japanese art
oxymoronical term
stagnant decadence
now met with a cringe
nihonjinron enslaved
kowtows to US
Tokugawa's dead
deep fried culture imported
lets write some textbooks
Oh no, run away
here comes Bluke, the thread killer
soon this thread may die
You see my last post?
In this thread? It killed before.
It may kill again
So beware, haikus,
you may be lost yet again
Bluke is a menace
Pay no attention
to the other three haikus
they speak many lies
Ah, Japanese art
furries and cosplay et al
all Japan stuff rocks

This man is a jerk
What does it matter at the end of the day
Because haiku has been around for a long time, I can't make fun of it?
There, hopefully that haiku will make his head explode.

His point isn't that you can't make fun of it; it's rather that joke haikus aren't haikus at all. They're three-line things that follow one single restriction that not even Bashō adhered to (the syllable length), rather than the many other more important things that make haikus haikus.
If I write a sonnet with
A random number of lines,
No meter and no rhyme,
And only line breaks
To make it look like poetry:
Am I cleverly parodying
William Shakespeare?
Still, though, so desperately writing a long essay begging for the joke haiku to be completely eliminated is a bit harsh. It can be pretty convenient to have a form for humorous verse that takes no effort to follow.
I for one welcome
our new haiku overlords:
Poems made easy!
O, haikus are fun
Do not overthink these things
Make haikus with joy
Mr Paul Henry
is a pretentious fool, no?
Just ignore his rant
EldKatt, I must say
You disappoint us all here
With lack of Haiku
I apologize
for my noticable lack
of haiku poems.
But I feel some ruth
for Mr Henry's despair
for the following:
A sublime art form,
thoroughly misunderstood,
as the haiku is.
But I doubt we'll claim
to be the peers of Basho.
There's no harm in it.
There are benefits:
When counting the syllables,
You think first, then talk,
even though there's more
that makes real haiku haiku.
There's no harm in fun.
Still, I think you all
might like reading the essay.
Harsh, but captivating.
There's no harm in fun,
but none in learning either.
...I've no more to say.
"Pedantic" is the

Yes
and
no.
He just wants to tell
people about what a haiku
really is, and how the true form is more complicated than (and indeed different from) what we Westerners are taught in school.
And that's just lovely.
But he's much too aggressive,
so he pretty much fails miserably in getting his point across, and ends up angering people instead,
QED.
That
is very
sad.
That has already
been discussed in this thread, but
five-seven-five wins
What is your purpose
by disrupting our Haiku
for no good reason
On the other hand,
when not adhering to rules,
better be arrant.
Or just don't break rules
This is always an option
Haiku only, friend.
I read the essay
But I don't care mwahaha
Onwards, I haiku.

Yes, I do agree
With what Andail has spoken
But to a degree

Sorry I rose this
What you call a 'dead' topic
But it has so much

haiku hiatus

nearly two ye-ars
Is this revival
Smiled on and not frowned on here?
Haikus for all time!
I just wish that we
could change to some other verse
meter like sonnets
or pentameter
in iambs, or anapests
or even lim'ricks...
haiku gets boring
after 43 pages
agreed?*
* (question mark)
Lim'ricks I can write
So let us make the switch now
Andail, good ide'.
There once was a haiku thread
Everyone thought it was dead
To my suprise
It caught my eyes
And through it all I read
;D
There once was a man named Enis,
who had a really enormous willy!
No wait, I've messed that up... :-\
There once was a poet in Hong Kong
Who thought Limericks were too long...
(you know, folks, just like a haiku is supposed to be 5/7/5 syllables, a limerick is supposed to have meter... three dactyls, three dactyls, then two, two, and then three; usually that's close to 9/9/5/5/9 syllables).
Dream of space travel
Dancing in the infinite dark

There once was lo_res_man
Who did not follow the plan
Lim'ricks we now write
Or we'll all have to fight
Delinquents kicked out cause we can.
I return in search of a poem
That I seemed to remember knowin'
And despite it's age
This thread's still front page?
How the hell long will this thing keep goin'?
Although this thread may seem crass
And it contains an eclectic morass
A good thing has occurred
If this thread has incurred
The return of that Canadian lass
There once was a man named Mike
Who sold his wife for for a bike
When asked why
he looked real sly

She took this thread and bumped it
::)
Monkey, your lim'rick
Has made me feel quite sick
All your talk of poo
Has made me say ew
In your head you must be quite thick

Monkey is being a jerk
Says that my lim'ricks don't work
"Syllables are wrong,
Those words don't belong.."
One day I'll just go berserk >:(
All this reminds me of Guybrush..
I would if we could drink some ...orange.
What a guy.
Should Duelnames
Take the blame
Is it his fault
this thead ground to a hault
or is it this silly game?
I dream in riddles
that make me laugh in my bed
but don't get awake
What form of po'try was that?
It spoke to me of dead cat.
Let's blame Dualnames
For stopping the game
And hit something with a rat.
Dead cats are not like
Your poetry, lo_res_man.
Naught else would rhyme, sorr'

(sorr' = sorry. I didnt know how to make it fit) ;D
Avast ya lubbers
death has come
do not blaim
cause it's come undone
I fear my life
is a little mad
stop this game at once
it makes me sad
do not think
I cannot rime
i can speak
like a mime
There's more to haiku
Than just speaking words that rhyme:
Must follow pattern!
But enough syllables for limerick
I must say that here you have not writ!
Though your words may rhyme
They must fit the time,
Unless you confirm them all as sh[.]t.
Apparently SilverTrumpet doesn't recognize "sh[..]" so I'll add the 't' back to the end. Maybe now she'll be able to figure it out. If not I guess I'll just have to uncensor myself.
Monkey:
Remember our talk:
"Count your syllables next time"?
F-thirtyfour-are
The above relates to this:
You said my po'ms were amiss.
Now follow your speech
Practice what you preach
And keep the rhyth-I'm-ic bliss
:P ;D
Edit: Definately got what you were sensoring,
especially because it rhymes with some of your previous lines.
Edit-the-second: Please don't be so patronizing.
A haiku in Dwarfish:
Gold gold gold gold gold
Gold gold gold gold gold gold gold

My dear friend lo_res_man
I have an int'resting plan
Stop being with dead cats
They don't make good floor mats
...Cause we're both Canadian
(I don't know what that had to do with it, but I thought it would be nice to recognize the shared nationality)
I'm not anti-fan
But if you talk to dead cats
You are a strange guy
While out on the Cam in a punt
I saw my nemesis in front
I tried to attack
fell flat on my back
and he escaped, the stupid old curmdgeon

please check it out one and all, no comments is a depressing state of being.
sorry if my poetry is a tad depressing, that last limerick was an attempt to write a 'dramatic' limerick, due to the fact that nearly all limericks are meant to be of a humorous nature.
