Okay, it's time to put on your Samurai Caps and come up with your best Haiku! For those of you who are unfamiliar with the form, I shall demonstrate:

First, five syllables
Then seven more syllables
Five more syllables


And that's it! Go at it!

Dude, you are so underestimating us. These are not just ANY haikus! They are SD.NET HAIKUS!!! And personally I think they're kicking some haiku ass right now.

Raoul: LOL Beeyoootiful. :D

I said haikus suck, not sd.net haikus.
Judging by Raouls and yours, this might get interseting. :D

I feel like doing one in Japanese, those more fluent than I feel free to critique

Kono miruku,
furui dearu ne?
Warui desu.

Translation:

This milk
is old, isn't it?
It's bad.


Positively zen-like. :D

I hate you so much
I'll rip your &#$@ing head off
Now, you are to die.

Did you ever think
That one day you'd be reading
Utter crap like this?


Serious one:

The lover long gone
My dearest prosecutor
Is the verdict in?


And back to the weird shit:

Please don't make me think
Mom and Dad don't like that much
Fundamentalist

Please do not try to
Pick up what you're sitting on
That makes God jealous


And a 21st Century Samurai attitude I highly recommend when dealing with women and the club scene:

I cut through the lies
Underbrush, these games you play
My heart is a blade


And...

Jesus Christ! God damn!
Motherfucker drank my beer!
That pisses me off!


You may have noticed by now...

I'm good at Haiku
I can bust these out all day
Fucking weird, ain't it?

This one is not mine, but from the Quake Haiku website.

- Long silent hallway
- The water swirls somewhere near
- Alone, with one health

That will never do
That one was not yours, Jawa
Show us what you got

Life is a big lie
You are a contradiction
May Truth rest in peace

Here's 2 I've written in the past:

Fifty pages turn at once
Then silence
As fifty hearts stop beating


I gave it away
before it could be stolen
I want it back twice

Alright, it's translated from Japanese, so it doesn't fit the syllables... but here goes.

Leaf bug
On cherry blossom
Happy feelings

I'm of the seventeen syllable school of hiaku (since even Basho didn't always stick to the 5-7-5 rule).

Rises the dark star
Its head is empty of all thought
Yet it won't shut up

"Scotty, beam us up"
Says the man with the toupee
His gut he sucks in.

and of course, my favorite of all time

Twilight is upon me
And soon night must fall
That is the way of things.

The rain is falling softly,

Haikus are good.
Keep them up, so we may find
great joy in there life.

Haiku-easy
Little work is required
but I do not care

First, a little background on how this haiku came about. We had a homophobic employee at my work once, and he thought he was going to get AIDS from sitting on a sweaty bike seat when he went to test ride the bike. He ended up putting a plastic baggie over the seat so he wouldn't get AIDS from a bike who's owner he thought was gay, and therefore had AIDS. What a dumbass shithead.

Homophobic schmuck
Thought the customer was gay
Plastic baggied seat


After this masterpiece was circulated around on the local bicycle message boards, the shithead was soon out of a job, lost his GF, and had a bunch of bad shit happen to him. He was also mocked endlessly, and that was cool.
