Shared HAIKU ! Join in, it's fun!

[RobinHood3000]

I need my fix soon
Lest the loo floods to the ceiling
...plumbers are too late

[Petrarch's Love]

I need my fix soon
Give me Godiva, Hershey,
See's or Lindt. Hurry!

Oops! Too late. Here's one with your line, Robin.

...plumbers are too late
Now I live in a great lake
And raft to the 'fridge.

[ktd222]

And raft to the fridge
to pillage and plunder as
if home from college

[TBtheG]

If home from college
one should always remember
to have a good time.

[blondeatheart]

to have a good time
all i need is to hold you
i love you always

[Regit]

I love you always
In dark corners o' the world
I love in silence

[Xamonas Chegwe]

I love in silence
Because it's so hard to speak
When one is kissing.

[RobinHood3000]

When one is kissing
Eyes close, lips part for passion
Hearts begin to pound

[mir]

hearts begin to pound
like dragon drums, i picture -
ah . . . someday, perhaps . . .

[Petrarch's Love]

Ah...someday perhaps
All the work will be done and
Life will be summer.

[Virgil]

Life will be summer
In winter time and summer
In winter. Confused?

[Petrarch's Love]

In winter Confused?
Always for the ice freezes
My little grey cells.

[Regit]

My little grey cells
Depart; fall away slowly
What have I achieved?

[chmpman]

What have I achieved
By rehearsing such trifles
That make a mind sick?

[TBtheG]

That make a mind sick
with the wretched thoughts of flu,
It's begining to.

[chmpman]

It's beginning to
Sound through a curtained window
Like wearied birds sleep.

[TBtheG]

Like wearied birds sleep
In the caverns of helms deep
evil seeks to creep.

[amuse]

evil seeks to creep
between closed lids persuading
day to fear the light

[samercury]

Day to fear the light
Hiding in a rock's shadow
Waiting for sunset

[Xamonas Chegwe]

Waiting for sunset
To escape this harsh bedding;
Vampires sleep poorly.

[Petrarch's Love]

Vampires sleep poorly
When near railway construction
Where people pound stakes.

[TBtheG]

Where people pound stakes
when they are done they eat steak
It makes them happy.

[ktd222]

It makes them happy
until they find out the steaks
are made from vampires.

[amuse]

are made from the vampires
these stews with the broth which was
once her dear brother


(not to be totally gross - honestly, that sort of thing would kill me *shudders*
(though i liked the two broths))

[TBtheG]

once her dear brother
did turn into a werewolf
she shot his wolf ***.

[Riesa]

She shot his wolf ***
With rabies vaccination
He howled like a pup.

[Virgil]

once her dear brother
did turn into a werewolf
she shot his wolf ***.
:lol: That is so funny!

He howled like a pup
when they took his dog bisket
Poor little baby.

[Petrarch's Love]

Poor little baby
Hush, stop crying. I'll let you
Have the remote now.

[TBtheG]

Have the remote now,
I am finished using it.
The Oilers have lost.

[Virgil]

The Oilers have lost
But next sunday things may change;
secret pass play planned.

[Mililalil XXIV]

Secret pass - play planned:
the scenario unfolds:
until the encore!

[ktd222]

until the encore,
when I'll attempt to outlast
the clapping of crowds.

[Xamonas Chegwe]

The clapping of crowds
For Britney and Christina;
So unjustified.

[ktd222]

So unjustified
to let guys think we gals think
that we think they think

[Riesa]

:D

That we think they think
Of us is the masterly
Trick of the butcher.

[RobinHood3000]

Trick of the butcher
The label reads as "Chicken."
Hah!! Now that's a laugh.

[Virgil]

Trick of the butcher
To turn a fat mooing cow
into luscious steak.

[Petrarch's Love]

Into lucsious steak
He'll never cut because he's
Vegetarian

[Riesa]

Vegetarian
Ranchers feel conflicted on
Eat A Bovine Day.

[ktd222]

Eat A Bovine Day
also includes practical
jokes about Vegans

[Virgil]

Vegetarian
Ranchers feel conflicted on
Eat A Bovine Day.
:lol: :lol: Very good.

Jokes about vegans:
Does your poop look like tofu
Or like green lentils?

[autolycus]

or like green lentils
this road less travelled leaves a
post-colonial trace

[ktd222]

post-colonial trace
is based on what you know, and
I know diddly squat.

[Virgil]

I know diddly squat
About sharks and bees wax and finches.
Write on what you know.

[ktd222]

Write on what you know.
I know that RFLPs
need restrict. enzymes

[autolycus]

need restrict enzymes
want freedoms speech air beer life
make the unborn free

[chmpman]

Make the unborn free
And shackle the dead in crypts;
Life has that effect.

[chmpman]

Jokes about vegans:
Does your poop look like tofu
Or like green lentils?

Terrible, just terrible.

[mir]

life has that effect -
wait, it's affect? or effect?
eng . . . lish over . . . load . . .

BZZZT! : )

[Riesa]

:D cute, mir. :wave:

eng . . . lish over . . . load . . .
Thinking on a word too much
Turns it inside out.

[kilted exile]

too late.....

[Petrarch's Love]

Turns it inside out
So that the silver lining
Shows nice and brightly

[chmpman]

Shows nice and brightly
Ornamented line the strip
Of sultry Vegas.

[Virgil]

Terrible, just terrible.
:lol: I was wondering why no one commented on that. I admit, it was awful.

Of sultry Vegas
With bleached blonde and fake tomatoes
She bar tends with flair.

[autolycus]

She bar tends with flair
Mother with her little bars
He bar much more crude

[amuse]

he bar much more crude -
as crude as theda bara
is enigmatic

[autolycus]

is enigmatic
how a scrambled arab death
captures attention

[ktd222]

captures attention,
and holds it by juggling
five balls at one time.

[Mililalil XXIV]

Five balls at one time,
give or take a syllable,
to make a haiku.

[Virgil]

To make a haiku
One struggles with an idea
Then fits syllables.

[Riesa]

Then fits syllables,
Sun burnt words, fried apples, and
Icy mountaintops.

[Virgil]

Hi Riesa

Icy mountains
Make hard and slippery climbing
I fell on my ***. :D

[autolycus]

i fell on my ***
a general sensation
in old days, a sword

[Riesa]

In old days, a sword,
A horse, and a metal suit,
Won the fair one's heart.

Hiya Virgil. :D

[ktd222]

Won the fair one's heart.
And all it took was monthly
payments for a year

[Virgil]

Payments for a year
And I own the car outright.
Watch the girls flock by.

[chmpman]

Watch the girls flock by
In shortening skirts as heat
Flusters one's thinking.

[autolycus]

flusters one's thinking
while hooking bait one man's fish
another man's poisson

[Riesa]

Another man's poisson,
Another reason to run,
Poor miserable waif.

[ktd222]

Poor miserable waif.
One-hundred-five yards away,
then poison kicked in.

[autolycus]

then poison kicked in
fans waving in the bright wind
sudden winter death

[chmpman]

Sudden winter death
Remembered in chill climate
Beyond burnng toil.

[ktd222]

Beyond burning toil-
success is in the dead eye
occluded from drive.

[autolycus]

occluded from drive
nothing could be saved at all
files go to file hell

[ktd222]

files go to file hell!
I don't want to ever hear
another word from you.

[samercury]

Another word from you
A stabbing knife in the heart
Wounding yet again

[autolycus]

wounding yet again
what rain is this threshing leaves
twenty years ago?

[chmpman]

Twenty years ago,
Unawares, I was brought forth
To face the jury.

[shinigami]

To face the jury,
For actions I have not done,
Forever condemned

[autolycus]

forever condemned
eternity also chained
the moment is now

[chmpman]

The moment is now
For false prophets to rally
'Round our misery.

[autolycus]

round our misery
squarely we lay discontent
at pentagon door

[Petrarch's Love]

At pentagon door
The dwarves waited to enter
The octagon room.

[ktd222]

The octagon room
is where modern men transform
to their archaic self.

[autolycus]

to their archaic
self be true and if not true
binary design

[Mililalil XXIV]

Binary design
until the tattoo is gone,
until this night has fled.

[autolycus]

till this night has fled
all belongs, is in its place
between you and me

[Petrarch's Love]

Between you and me
There is nothing but thin air
Let's make it nothing.

[Virgil]

Let's make it nothing
Grasping for what, lazy words?
Unreal in your thoughts.

[shinigami]

Unreal in your thoughts,
Yet why do I still serve you,
I'm your willing slave

[autolycus]

i'm your willing slave
deliberation is king
chessboard black on white

[Dirt McKert]

chessboard black on white
searching through these distant trees
for a land long gone

[autolycus]

for a land long gone
much noise many banners flown
legends of the fall

[kilted exile]

legends of the fall,
get forgotten in the spring
fame is fleeting

[autolycus]

fame is fleeting
dreadnoughts battleships grey seas
yes indeed britain

[Gawaine]

Our Gaudy World

Glamorous towers.
Inside you they seek, to provoke,
Television shine.

[Riesa]

Hi Gawaine, you need to use the last line of the previous Haiku to play this game.


Yes indeed Britain
Has produced fine shows that on
Television shine.

[Weeping Willow]

Television shine.
On a never ending day
Full of good and bad.

[Riesa]

Full of good and bad
Just like the human race, no-
Body is exempt.

;) :wave:

[dcdavi]

body is exempt
censure from crimes of the flesh
blame it on the brain

[mir]

blame it on the brain
that's what i said! but - no, it
don't hold up in court.

[Petrarch's Love]

Don't hold up in court
Lime green shorts as evidence
Of good fashion sense.

[chmpman]

Of good fashion sense
Some show obliviousness
As their only sense.

[Mililalil XXIV]

As their only sense,
to take along with their pride,
this now is their soul.

[Xamonas Chegwe]

This now is their soul,
A bag of sand and strange oils;
A weird religion!

[Riesa]

A weird religion
yet, songs like 'I'll Fly Away'
Cleave my soul in two.

[Virgil]

Cleave my soul in two
With what? an angel's saber?
Steel blades won't cut through.

[chmpman]

Steel blades won't cut through
Like a warranteed ring in
Marriage selection.

[Riesa]

Marriage selection
Depends on the selector
The same as milk fat.

[Virgil]

The same as milk fat
Cheese congealed and aged
Makes me very hungry.

[chmpman]

Makes me very hungry,
Stomach rumbling loudly
Like tractors on dirt.

[Riesa]

Makes me very hungry
The doe-fresh look of the new
Born calf - veal loaves!

[Virgil]

Makes me very hungry
The doe-fresh look of the new
Born calf - veal loaves!
:lol: Now all the animal rights people are going to come after you.


Born calf - veal loaves!
No, too cute to cut apart.
Will be a moo cow.

[autolycus]

will be a moo cow
thinking be a barking dog
mind under matter

[Riesa]

Mind under matter
Until Stephen thinks other
Long live the Irish!

[Virgil]

Long live the Irish
Their writers and songsters
Have entertained us.

[chmpman]

Have entertained us
With tales told nearing slumber
Lit by crackling limbs.

[Riesa]

Lit by crackling limbs
The old man seeks respite in
His downy bed so soft.

[Virgil]

Hey I'm that old man! :D

His downy bed so soft
Having been on strange mattress
For a week too long.

[Riesa]

yes, I was thinking of you, old man. :D

For a week too long,
She traverses the two step
steps, but still can't dance.

[chmpman]

Seriously, Virgil, do you ever sleep? Isn't it past 3:00 in New York?

Steps, but still can't dance;
No rhythmic blending of shoe
With polished surface.

[autolycus]

with polished surface
the jigsaw east of europe
becomes one with one

[mir]

becomes one with one -
she takes his uncertain hand
and smiles, "i do."

[Mililalil XXIV]

And [she] smiles, "i do,"
As I fit the ring upon
her precious finger.

[autolycus]

her precious finger
the sun trapped in stone and ring
castle under siege

[RobinHood3000]

Castle under siege
The ballistas begin to
Reload their arrows

[Weeping Willow]

Reload you Arrow
You cowerd! Come Back you hear!
Unguard here they come!

[autolycus]

unguard here they come
what untoward disorient
occidental fate

[Virgil]

Occidental fate
Desires Oriental girl
For marriage and date.

[amuse]

ooh, Virgil, I like.

*disappears again, will catch up asap...

[Mililalil XXIV]

For marriage and date
upon the precipices
until heights broaden.

[Virgil]

Until heights broaden
We lie together cuddled
In secret embrace.

[autolycus]

in secret embrace
elephant and donkey two
making a wasteland

[Mililalil XXIV]

making a wasteland
under the radio scanners,
the crabbies are back!

[amuse]

the crabbies are back
see them scurry after the
waves recede - catch them!

[Virgil]

waves recede - catch them
But watch the undercurrent
It can take you out.

[brighttears]

It can take you out
ecstasy to probation
fight for what you've lost

[kilted exile]

fight for what you've lost,
Take what you have for granted
Then lose everything

* I know for a lot of people that has 6 syllables but the way I talk it has five( or occassionally one)*

[Petrarch's Love]

Five syllables there as far as I'm concerned. ;)

Then lose everything
And find a way to survive
And to start anew.

[ktd222]

And to start anew.
BOO! I guess it will be the
afterlife anew.

[blondeatheart]

afterlife anew
i just want to be with you
forever always

[Virgil]

forever always
I sign my special love notes
to my lovely one

[shinigami]

To my lovely one,
I present to you my heart.
Please have me buried...

[water lily]

Please have me buried
In the plot next to your own.
Together always.

[shinigami]

Together always,
me and my dear chocolate
Yum... this tastes really great.

[autolycus]

...this tastes really great.
why such care? what an odd fish!
such famous last words

[Petrarch's Love]

Such famous last words:
Ask for me tomorrow and
You'll find a grave man.

[Virgil]

To my lovely one,
I present to you my heart.
Please have me buried...
:lol: Shini, this started like it could have been a great one.


You'll find a grave man
When you start digging around
A cemetary.

[mir]

a cemetary
ghosts, ghouls and grave diggers and
don't forget Igors!

ouch . . sorry . . really bad . .

[Virgil]

don't forget Igors
Those Russian fellows who sleep
In physics class room

[Petrarch's Love]

In physics class room
Weary heads dropping to desks
Model gravity.

[autolycus]

model gravity
they never smile while preening
serious equipoise

[Petrarch's Love]

Serious equipoise
As she pauses on one point
In an arabesque

[Virgil]

In an arabesque
She decides to meet her love,
By the Grand Canal.

[Petrarch's Love]

By the grand canal
There's much to remember but...
I won't kiss and tell. ;)

[Weeping Willow]

I won't kiss and tell
But i'll just kiss you instead
Mi amour "Mu A"

[Anna G. Appel]

Burn and rage away
The times of leafy ashes
Settles from fire

[atiguhya padma]

Settles from fire
Scattered through autumn fields
Fed back into earth

[Petrarch's Love]

Fed back into the earth
The sharp white teeth grow anew
Into fierce warriors

[Virgil]

Into fierce warriors
the gentle child thrust himself.
Hailed a young hero.

[cuppajoe_9]

Hailed a young hero
Taunted a foolish old man
Honored a gravestone

[Asa Adams]

Honoured a gravestone
without a faint love appeal
towards the lost son

[atiguhya padma]

Towards the lost son,
We travel through the heart, yet
Discover no-one.

[caesar]

Discover no-one
Nor Uncover the only
For many there are

[atiguhya padma]

For many there are
But few that can sing so well
As drifting skylarks

[earthboar]

For many there are
But few that can sing so well
As drifting skylarks

As drifting skylarks,
Leaves play tag in summer breeze;
Below, tall grass stirs.

[atiguhya padma]

Below, tall grass stirs
In the hollow sound of wind
Passing overhead

[AimusSage]

Passing overhead
A plane flies dangerously
Crashing down to earth

[RobinHood3000]

Crashing down to earth
The Last Son of Krypton is
Here to save the world

[Petrarch's Love]

Here to save the world
With bow taut, arrows ready
Dressed in hunter green.

[autolycus]

dressed in hunter green
a last duck stares mournfully
seconds, anyone?

[Weeping Willow]

Seconds, anyone?
Shall i call another Round?
Beer Beer! Give Us BEER!!

[verybaddmom]

Beer Beer! Give Us BEER!!
I've not got an addictive
personality

[Weeping Willow]

Hay it's cool to see you online... :)... :wave:..

Personality
A thing I lack so much off
Viva Las Vegas!

[samercury]

Viva Las Vegas!
-A cry uttered by many
As they tumble out

[Virgil]

Viva Las Vegas!
-A cry uttered by many
As they tumble out
It's Same!!! :banana:


As they tumble out
of the bucket, the baseballs
roll down the dugout.

[RJbibliophil]

roll down the dugout
splash onto the ground below
the clouds are crying

[verybaddmom]

the clouds are crying
weeping tears of clean pure
sadness. freshly brewed

[Weeping Willow]

Sadness. freshly brewed
As I look at the bottom
Of my empty glass

[mono]

Of my empty glass
I see it filling with air,
Yet I drink with breath.

[Virgil]

Yet I drink with breath
And nearly choke in my throat.
Easy does it now.

[RJbibliophil]

Easy does it now.
Squirrel appears like a mouse
Clouds are farther still

[Riesa]

Clouds are farther still
But a breath of wind stirs them,
Smiles slow them down.

[mono]

Smiles slow them down -
Luminosity that greets
Dark melancholy.

[verybaddmom]

dark melancholy
contrasts like bruised ivory skin
with my hopeful soul

[Virgil]

dark melancholy
contrasts like bruised ivory skin
with my hopeful soul
Very nice!


With my hopeful soul
I climb into the cabin
For my long voyage

[RJbibliophil]

For my long voyage
Through the golden clouds above
The moon my sole friend

[Riesa]

The moon my sole friend
Mandarin pale tonight, spurred
Gently; lofty perch.

[Virgil]

Gently, loft perch,
The leopard eyes the small fawn
Hunger leaps tonight.

Hi Riesa :wave:

[Petrarch's Love]

Hunger leaps tonight
Stealthily it pounces on
Fridgid left overs.

[RJbibliophil]

Fridged left overs.
Left to fend against all odds.
Others up above

[Petrarch's Love]

Others up above
Know far more than we below
Of making thunder.

[Asa Adams]

of making thunder
in the clouds and in the sky
thought trembles away.

[Petrarch's Love]

Thought trembles away
In quavering minor chords
Beneath deft fingers.

[kilted exile]

Beneath Deft Fingers
The Electric Guitar Sings
Of Love Lost And Won

[Petrarch's Love]

Of love lost and won
And of birth and death and birth
The bards sang through time.

[RJbibliophil]

The bards sang through time.
Of love and romance, tales true
and those but imagined

[mono]

And those but imagined
Fade into iridescent
Mist that falls like rain.

[dcdavi]

mist that falls like rain
maybe on another plain
vapors rise on earth

[mono]

Vapors rise on earth
Like the rain falling upwards,
But to fall once more.

[RJbibliophil]

But to fall once more.
Raindrops landed on a roof.
Now must fall to earth.

[RJbibliophil]

But to fall once more.
Raindrops landed on a roof.
Now must fall to earth.

[mono]

Now must fall to earth,
As the past sinks, and future
Drifts over our heads.

[RJbibliophil]

Drifts over our heads.
The island castle of clouds.
Peasants and their land.

[atiguhya padma]

Peasants and their land
Filled with summer fluorescence
Sumptuous pleasures

[mono]

Sumptuous pleasures -
What grandeur of faculties,
And, oh, what pleasures!

[RJbibliophil]

And, oh, what pleasures!
Sunset beyond blue waters
Bright summer evening

[Reason is a cow]

Ah, oh, what pleasures!
Peasants lay in black haystacks,
Their sheep without wool.

[Weeping Willow]

Their sheep without wool
Naked, on november day
Just don't catch a cold.

[mono]

Just don't catch a cold,
Stray far from that chilly wind,
Freezing such kind lips.

[caesar]

Freezing such kind lips,
Which never denied a kiss
And, yet, you still wish.....

[literaturerocks]

and yet you still wish...
that i'd touch those blissful lips
sweet a kiss it is

[caesar]

Sweet a kiss it is
It turns bitterness to bliss
How could I ever

[caesar]

How could I ever
be happy again when the
Only person who

[caesar]

Only person who
Undersood me, hates me for
Being who I am.

[Weeping Willow]

Being who I am.
Is to be what is inside
Deeper then you're soul!

[Virgil]

Deeper than your soul
Within what God placed within
Your beauty shines bright

[Danika_Valin]

Your beauty shines bright
With celestial radiance
Blinding hopeful eyes

[DStrangelove]

Blinding hopeful eyes
The abyss of nothingness
Drapes a silky cloak.

[Haler]

Drapes a silky cloak
For windows enwrought with sun;
Restful in summer.

[literaturerocks]

restful in summer
they gently sway with passion
glistening with sun

[DStrangelove]

Glistening with sun
For a moment, a dewdrop
Dies in resplendence.

[Haler]

Dies in resplendence
Mighty king bloodied and torn
Saving his kingdom

[Danika_Valin]

Saving his kingdom
He raises his voice to shout
praises to his God.

[dcdavi]

praises to his god
because the omnipotent
need lots of acclaim.

[Weeping Willow]

Need lots of acclaim
This Human race, Killing us
Bit by Bit we fall

[Riesa]

Bit by Bit we fall,
One tiny fissure called Time.
An elephant's mouse.

Willow, :wave: I'm thinking about you, kiddo. Hugs.

[Virgil]

An elephant's mouse
Bit the ponderous pachyderm
On his lengthy snout.

[caesar]

On his lengthy snout
Balancing an idea
Soon to fall apart

[atiguhya padma]

Soon to fall apart
Like the debris it creates
Exploding children

[Virgil]

Exploding children
Having eaten many beans
stink up the whole joint

[white camellia]

stink up the whole joint
wash up his blood-soaked hands and
primp the stiff body

[Virgil]

primp the stiff body
shed your tears over the grave
watch the sun set low

[Petrarch's Love]

Watch the sun set low
Upon your conscience lady
Cry "Out, out damned spot!"

[Virgil]

Cry, "Out, out damned spot!"
Upon my new dark blue suit.
I should laugh, not cry.

[mono]

I should laugh, not cry,
When the gray tragedies turn,
When comedies fall.

[white camellia]

when comedies fall
Dionysos is consigned
to oblivion

[Virgil]

To oblivion
we slowly drive our auto.
The road never ends.

[Haler]

The road never ends
For us modern folk; we live
On a round earth now.

[mono]

On a round earth now,
I come from a mounted spot
In warmth and comfort.

[Danika_Valin]

In warmth and comfort,
Sleep in the bosom of earth
till the morning comes.

[ShoutGrace]

Till the morning comes (http://www.oldielyrics.com/lyrics/neil_young/till_the_morning_comes.html)
I'm gonna give you till the
Morning comes again

[Petrarch's Love]

Morning comes again
And songs are sung to honor
The unchanging change.

[ShoutGrace]

The unchanging change
Man's search for truth, and knowledge
Lasts through the cold night

[Haler]

Lasts through the cold night,
dying in it's rocky bed
'till dawn's breath brings life.

[Petrarch's Love]

'Til Dawn's breath brings life
The flower is closed tightly
Guarding its secrets.

[ShoutGrace]

Guarding it's secrets
The hunger moans jealously
Warning away aid

[Haler]

very original, shoutgrace.

Warning away aid,
the jumper basks in the light
that's arrived too late.

[Virgil]

That's arrived too late
for Custer to have survived.
Next time page for help.

[ShoutGrace]

Next time page for help
Before you start to careen
Away from yourself.



very original, shoutgrace.
