Haiku contest

[Brinx]

"The haiku is an unrhymed, Japanese poem with three lines of five, seven, and five syllables, respectively."

The best gets some yet-to-be-decided prize of incredibly little worth.

 

[Brinx]

Moderating here.
Hoping it leads to fortune.
More likely headache.

 

[old.Dillinja]

What a stupid thread.
Not sure why I'm replying.
I must have been bored.

 

[gengi]

Sunday morning Rig
Only three more weeks to go
then home no more spam

 

[Brinx]

Two thirty A.M.
Boredom only natural
Have another beer

 

[gengi]

a beer would be good
but oilrigs are dry places
roll on the hitch end

 

[osy]

strangers in the mist
what is the difference
the closer you get
the more you see.

 

[Archeon]

Poetry? what the hell...

I Like Cake Very Much,
And It Is Very Yummy,
It Goes In My Belly.

(i wanted to say tummy, damn this is tough how do you people do it?)

EDIT: Wait..... Silibles? NOBODY SAID ANYTHING ABOUT SILIBLES!!!!!..... Bah! and i wanted to win as well, know what? I'm just going to get back into the habit of keeping a 30 metre distance between myself and the off-topic forums. No offense but your all a little bit crazy.

Crap type of poem
Only Japs could think of it
It's not even good

 

[Jonaldo]

I hafv no tital
Me wantz a custom tital
Pleas gifv nise tital


(Not only does it rhyme but it's spelt so accurately DAOC like)

I am so angry
US keeps killing our own
Will they ever stop?

Pepsi over coke
If you argue it's a joke
It's so much nicer.

Chicken is so nice
You can eat it with some rice
Or not, if you want.

 

[old.Alliandre]

Unbroken spirit
Is Obscured and disquiet
Empty and missing

or

If by pensive fear
His obsession is to real
He should take his time

Pretty hard to do though

 

[Tenko]

One, two, three four five
Once I saw a fish alive.
Is this a haiku?

 

[Jonaldo]

Doo doo da da day
Dum de dum shalalala
Floopdy wah wah hey!

 

[old.Tohtori]

You want a haiku?
I don't think i know how to.
Will leave it to you.

Flickering in the ether.
