The Haiku Thread

Write a haiku. :) or 15. About anything - your snake, your couch, your life, the universe, an experience you've had.

(5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 syllables)



A soft, cooing voice
Floating through the evening air
Its words; light kisses.


Bright lights, tall buildings...
A ravenous populace
Drooling desire.


There - it twitched, shifted
Scents of rodent on my tongue
A single, swift strike.

Here's five syllables
And heres seven syllables
Are you happy now?
……………………………………………...

Haikus are poems
But sometimes they don't make sense
Refrigerator

One, two, three, FOUR, FIVE,
Six, seven, eight, NINE, TEN, beep!
Eleven, TWELVE! Yeah!!!

What the heck did I just watch?!?! I…..I don't think I was high…….

Delicious, golden,
Fried and glazed and greasy too.
Oh how I regret.

Painful rectal itch
Antihemorrhoidal creme
Ahh, all better now

This thread has gone south,
Which is impressive for sure.
Where else will it lead?

There once was a man
From Nantucket, who... Oh, wait.
That's not a haiku!


Can you tell I'm bored?
I can't stop making haikus.
Procrastination.


I have a question
For everyone on this site:
Is this a normal?

Looks normal to me
It must be bred to be sure
Maybe a new morph.

A state of normal,
It presents a paradox:
No real thing is so.


Normalness beckons,
Alas, I grow weary, bored.
Constrain yourselves not.

The guy from Craigslist
Told me it was "Het Pastel".
How much is it worth?

You know what they say
One is born every minute
Charge big bucks for it

I'm gonna be rich!
Selling snakes is so easy.
I can quit my job!

Oh you lucky fiends.
Someday I will get a snake...
He'll be my best friend.


We can go to movies,
I will make him little hats.
Burrito sounds good.

I don't have any friends
My snakes are my only friends
Even they hate me
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I really hate school
Why am I doing honors
There's so much homework

What a tragic tale;
School is useful, gets you jobs;
Homework, you can eat.

Tried to eat homework
It was not very yummy
So I spit it out

Herpetology
Is what I plan to study
12 years of school left

Maybe add salsa;
If that don't work then ketchup
And old mayonnaise.

Wow 12 years is long;
Sounds like medical school; should
Have cool content though.

I really hope so
It's what I love to study
I love genetics

Love is important.
My love is for burritos.
One is digesting.
