Haiku Battle!

[SharPhoe]

I should not do this
Add just one more to the thread
long enough as is

Long though it may be,
there's always room for one more.
Let's keep it going.

 

[Cockney_Jesus]

Five syllables first,
This is followed by seven,
Then another five.

Indeed; this thread must
Live on forever; Haikus
Will be eternal.

A story idea
kept me from sleeping last night.
Is that good or bad?

 

[Kinguendo]

You just make one up
It is really not that hard.
Think: five, seven, five.

Five, Seven, Five huh?
what about four, five, four?
Some people do that.

[A-N]
Although you did 5, 7, 4.

 

[Kinguendo]

I once met a man...
Oh, wait a minute thats a lymeric.
Wonder what I'll write instead.

 

[SharPhoe]

Five, Seven, Five huh?

Some people do that.

I believe that scheme
is for a different poem...
Can't recall the name.

 

[Lukeje]

A story idea

Is that good or bad?

Depends what it was;
A fully formed idea
You can realise?

Or some dream that you
Could never hope to fulfil.
It really depends.

 

[deewank]

Well Ill be dammed dude
i didn't think this was gonna last
I guess I was wrong

It wrote itself out
in my mind as I feigned sleep.
The first chapter's done.

Maybe I'll post it...
But not in this thread, of course.
That would screw it up.

You can't rewrite it,
In Haiku form and manner?
That is a challenge.

I probably could,
if you gave me a few weeks.
Otherwise, no way.

Nah, it is okay,
I'm sure the second chapter
Must be done instead.

 

[SharPhoe]

Must be done instead.

Indeed, but not yet.
Illustrations must come first.
Time for Photoshop.

So is this novel
Of 'Graphic' variety?
Like Watchmen or Maus?

 

[AlexanderAstartes]

I'll do so later,
I have no time at current,
Could be a fun game.

It's not a novel,
just a short tale I cooked up
based on a long dream.

Sounds interesting.
So what is this dream induced
Story all about?

Let's see, where to start...
A homosexual boy
nearly kills himself.

He's talked out of it
by a blond stranger and lives
with him for a while.

Their time together
causes the gay to love the
mysterious boy.

Alas, he is straight,
not to mention he's engaged.
The boy's heartbroken.

Despite all of this,
the story does indeed have
a happy ending.
