HAIKU
 
I haiku, do you?

for those of you who missed this in school, haiku is defined as:

hai·ku Audio pronunciation of haiku ( P ) Pronunciation Key (hk)
n. pl. haiku, also hai·kus

1. A Japanese lyric verse form having three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables, traditionally invoking an aspect of nature or the seasons.
2. A poem written in this form.




So why don't you try
to write a haiku for us
and see how you do

Jimbo is a turd
He must have nothing to do
Quit polluting, jerk!

lumberjim 03-13-2004 12:23 PM

poem you sonofabitch

staceyv 03-13-2004 12:37 PM

i love my coffee
hot, steamy and very strong
it gets me wired

elSicomoro 03-13-2004 12:39 PM

What is wrong, Jimbo?
Did you not like my haiku?
The truth, it can hurt

lumberjim 03-13-2004 01:10 PM

just be thankful, bitch
that i don't come over there
and tear your arms off





hey, this is really fun.

much more fun than regular pretty little haiku.

IT'S THE HAIKU INSULT THREAD!!

elSicomoro 03-13-2004 01:24 PM

The only thing that
Jim will tear off is his dick
He jerks off too much

Haiku rocks. Haiku is the manliest poetry there is. Haiku actually promotes the production of testosterone. (*cough*)

Here are a few of mine from my website:
Quote:

Help, I'm prisoner
Frolicking with ribbons and
Forced to look gleeful

Watch the fat lady
Draw circles on the wood floor
I want a tattoo

New doomsday device
No one knows how to use it
So call tech support

A belch of flame licks
The night as high waters suck
Life from the people

I don't like death rays
They make my gums and teeth hurt
Weep for me, Earthling

Stay awhile and wait
The smell is temporary
Stay out of my chair

Shout obscenities
Speak your mind, offend them all
Do not hide from truth

Excuse my rudeness
I am quite new to this place
So shut up, maggot

Crave the beef jerky
Salty, mysterious meats
Do not stay your hand

I have the Tourette's
You slimy, worthless crap stacks
Damn you all to hell

It's a puzzlement
Why is the small man staring?
Hit him with a shoe

Ahhh fuck!!!! I actually changed "anyway" to "stuff".

You need to go spend time with your family LJ.

elSicomoro 03-13-2004 02:19 PM

Pay no mind to Jim
He's just jealous because he
Can't compete with me

jinx 03-13-2004 02:22 PM

LJim is working
He's not currently at home
Mind your own business

blue 03-13-2004 02:25 PM

you are home alone
do you do phone sex or cam
jim will never know

lumberjim 03-13-2004 02:27 PM

I am syc's hero
he wants to be just like me
but he's too stupid





syc, it seems to me
you only heckle my posts
ever since you left





you must miss me, pal
el ciberbosque cannot lure
me from the cellar




it's because you don't
even have your own t-shirt
or cd exchange

Phone sex is for chumps
No sex now, with kids awake
I scream much too loud

heads!

blue 03-13-2004 02:34 PM

Hey, whadya know...this is fun.

lumberjim 03-13-2004 02:54 PM

I see the blue sky
and the sycamore trees bent
with the blowing wind

jinx 03-13-2004 03:04 PM

Sell the money jim
to the suckers buying cars
Bring me home some cash

Fill my Jeep with gas
And change the kitty litter
When you get back home

elSicomoro 03-13-2004 03:04 PM

Jimbo, you sound a
bit self-centered. Like it is
all about you, turd

I've given you shit
since day one. It's like you have
a "Kick me" sign on

You may have noticed
That I give lots of people
Shit. That's just my style

If you don't want me
To heckle you, there is a
simple fix for it

Quit giving me the
Ammunition to do so
But that might be tough

The only wind I
Feel is the hot air that comes
From your non-stop mouth

So, are you done yet?
What do you have to say now?
Make my fucking day

lumberjim 03-13-2004 03:12 PM

my dear sycamore
what do I have to say now?
don't be such a troll

i wouldn't want to
hurt your delicate ego
and make you leave twice

Sycamore sounds mad
Like sand in his vagina
this must hurt like hell






[for the record] this has been, i hope, in good fun. You might be getting a little edgy, so i want to say that i really DO think you're a dick...no!... i mean, i was just kidding[/for the record]

:D

elSicomoro 03-13-2004 03:17 PM

It's all good. I wasn't mad, but you have reacted poorly to people giving you shit before, so I wasn't sure where you were going with it. The first 3 were serious, but the rest of it was me trying to remain humorous.

:)

Brigliadore 03-13-2004 03:18 PM

Its too bad we don't have an "inserts foot in mouth" smiley face.

Undertoad, you think we could get one just for LJ? :)

lumberjim 03-13-2004 03:22 PM

i don;t taste feet. when did it go in?

Brigliadore 03-13-2004 03:26 PM

EDIT: Stuck my own foot in my mouth

jaguar 03-13-2004 03:29 PM

As your local representative of reason and calm, I shall now bring you the world famous works of Doctor Toast .

A slice of calmness
In mankind's world of bloodshed
Spread some marmalade

Angry toastless man
Malfunctioning appliance
Senseless killing spree

Whole-grain metaphor
Anguish soon will dissipate
A bread transfigured

Intensely focused
I anticipate my toast
Somewhere a dog barks

Proudly I preside
Nineteen toasters hum in sync
A kitchen aflame

Scrape into the sink
Constellation of black stars
A toast neglected

elSicomoro 03-13-2004 03:35 PM

(Keep in mind that I'm using the American pronunciation of "jaguar," which is "ja-gwar."

Jaguar? Reason? Calm?
What a bunch of damned nonsense!
What a fucking scam!

elSicomoro 03-13-2004 03:54 PM

Tasty, delicious
Nothing like it in the world
I love eating foot

Productive, instructive, cool
Japanese Haiku

lumberjim 03-13-2004 11:31 PM

all three horses stand
against the three rails of white
no shelter from wind


orange and blue sky
seen from the back of a truck
work is almost done


door in a stairwell
in grey paint on old window
the word "reflections"

in my mind i see
a picture folded over
is it me or her?


chinese poet comes
quoting work of Mao Zedong
it ryhmes in english


our poems don't ryhme
if we translate to chinese
will it ryhme to them?

If we could shuffle the order a bit, and if I'm counting right, we could quote the Joker:
Quote:

A little song,
A little dance,
Batman's head on a lance.
If not, ah whavever. I could never do these things right.

Quzah.

Thus says robert frost
poetry, translated, gets lost
rhymed versions do cost

Thus laughs lumberjim
translators out on a limb
laugh at me, not him

staceyv 03-14-2004 01:43 PM

are we done with this?
it is driving me crazy
i was close before

now i am closer
to hell in a handbasket
and i am afraid

hot_pastrami 03-14-2004 02:51 PM

Technically, a haiku's lines should all be stand-alone... a phrase should not span lines. I don't always follow the rules myself, however.

Improperly formatted Haiku. I'm such a rebel (*cough*)

Radar 03-15-2004 09:01 AM

I own all of you
because I'm the champion
of making Haiku

the champion, huh?

would you mind sharing a real one with us, then?

SteveDallas 03-15-2004 10:06 AM

Boring silliness
The Internet wastes my time
I'll go read a book

staceyv 03-15-2004 02:55 PM

half cup chocolate
one and a half cups of cream
the mousse is so good

semisweet is best
heavy whipping cream's a must
first boil the cream

add the chocolate
melt the chocolate in cream
whip the mix up good

refrigerate it
now you are ready to eat
you will see heaven

Radar 03-15-2004 03:22 PM

Formatting Haiku
Is not very important
if it all adds up

The number of lines
is fairly irrelevant
and the poet's choice

But if you insist, I can format my poem, to make you happy.

Radar 03-15-2004 03:25 PM

Libertarian, defender of liberty, our last and best hope.

the night i noticed
as the river rolled by me
i was so happy

novice 03-17-2004 03:39 AM

I joined The Cellar,
Looking for enlightenment,
I got a T-Shirt

novice 03-17-2004 03:42 AM

Screeching, groaning, graunch.
Shuddering to a shaky halt,
My brakes need honing

novice 03-17-2004 03:54 AM

Greasy demeanour,
Poking in my cars privates,
"It's gonna cost ya"

Sigh. Resignation.
My baby monstered by this thug,
Go ahead, be gentle!

Belies appearance,
His surgery leaves no scars
She stops on a dime.

richlevy 03-17-2004 12:43 PM

Annoying these are.
Much like Yoda-speech they sound.
Talk normal, dammit!

lumberjim 03-17-2004 01:40 PM

:APPLAUSE: novice & rich.....good ones!

richlevy 03-19-2004 09:09 PM

I read these haikus
Their fine precision moves me
Such exact rhythm
So precise the syllables
So LumberJim, tanka you:p

Slartibartfast 03-19-2004 09:34 PM

Haiku Pikachu
I choose you to fight for me
Fast attack George Bush



Image of the Day
Cute animals on fridays
Pot luck otherwise



Google whale penis
The Cellar will be rank one
We stand by this cause



Haiku on diet
It has lost five syllables
