Haiku Battle!

[captainwolfos]

Werthers! Oh my god.
I have just been handed one.
I can die happy.

[A-N]

Yes, I've been handed one. So I had to write a crappy haiku XD

 

[Trent Lynch]

Go, Dancing rune blade. Ignite!
Obliterate them!

This thread continues.
I hope that it never ends.
It is far too fun.

 

[lotusflwr]

Can this be bested?
Pure distillation of words.
Mmm, language vodka!

I must correct you
this is not haiku, this is
what is called hokku

[A/N]
Haiku is actually a series of sets made up of 5-7-5-7-7 syllable count. The 5-7-5 part we mistake as haiku is actually a hokku. The more you know.

Truth, tangled, in flux!
Other seekers tread before.

...Now I feel stupid.
Alas, we have come this far;
might as well go on.

Haiku or Hokku
It does not matter to me,
Poetry's still fun.

 

[ConstantJoe]

Oh I wish I could
Write a very good haiku
That would be awesome

A new poster speaks
no matter what it is called
Haiku is my thing

Welcome to the club,

Please enjoy your stay.

Interesting thread.
My Haiku skills are rusty.
Let me warm them up.

Are we keeping score?
Or is everyone winning,
Just playing for fun?

Just for fun is best;
I enjoy competition,
But not for Haiku.

 

[Klagermeister]

I cannot haiku.
The words just don't fit so well...
I'll see you later.

 

[DeAvatar]

through the thunderstorms
I have my surge protector
typing strange hikus

 

[SharPhoe]

This is just my luck.
The job opening I found
is too far away.

How far, you may ask?
3 whole hours, give or take.
That's walking time, though.

 

[SharPhoe]

I work way too slow.
All of my art projects take
longer than they should.

is already in the works...
I go through them fast.

That avatar is
Awesome; what is it playing
With on the string's end?

bouncing on the pole
some contraption for the cats
I yarn to paw it.

It's a toy penguin.
That's the toy-on-a-stick that
Yahtzee messes with.
