Thread: Shared HAIKU ! Join in, it's fun!

    (Btw - I thought our haikus turned into a rather nice poem - how´s that for teamwork?

    We could almost put it among the death poems!

    Don´t you dare , rat boy
    I am not done dancing yet,
    grandma said to death
    I'll meet you on the highway
    Just don't leave me there.
    "I wont" lied death to grandma
    Death is very cruel
    and some would say it's rather
    temporary too )


    Sorry about the interuption - now back to the game.
    "Man was made for joy and woe;
    And when this we rightly know
    Through the world we safely go" Blake

    Yes Isagel I think it'd be hilarious to copy and paste all these pages of haikus as one long running one, just for the h of it, it's taken many twists and turns. But I'm not quite that obsessive compulsive.

    still it tries to grow
    deep and blackly twisted is
    past foresaken love

    past foresaken love
    turns the soul to bitter ash
    all perspective lost
    If you had to live with this you'd rather lie than fall.

    Hey, guys, don't forget about the real haiku thread!

    all perspective lost
    eschew logic for ideals
    screwed immaculate

    recite: "greed is good."
    Even though we do not know
    What greed is, good is.
    Faith is believing what you know ain't so - Mark Twain

    The preachers deal with men of straw, as they are men of straw themselves - Henry David Thoreau

    The way to see faith is to shut the eye of reason - Benjamin Franklin

    The teaching of the church, theoretically astute, is a lie in practice and a compound of vulgar superstitions and sorcery - Leo Tolstoy

    What greed is, good is,
    no room here for any
    charitable men.

    Let the waves crush in
    See what stories they carry
    Whose stories they tell
    I have a plan: attack!

    Whose stories they tell
    Whose life they would like to take
    Is it yours or mine?
    In dreams begin responsibilities.

    Is it yours or mine?
    The life and heart that are
    swept away by sea?

    Swept away by sea
    Drowned, forsaken, mourned only
    By the keening gulls
    This lone boy
    Sets off on a journey
    Grass for his pillow

    By the keening gulls
    I am guided to the edge
    Safe harbor at last
    If you had to live with this you'd rather lie than fall.

    Safe harbour at last
    Refuge from the liquid maw
    Of turbulent seas
    This lone boy
    Sets off on a journey
    Grass for his pillow
