Lucius Posted November 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Re: Haiku Hero Cross posted from a thread started by Matt Holck It's kinda like poetry. Much like poetry Disjointed/evocative Madness often is What is poetry? Madness under discipline Storm in a bottle Scarlet battalions Between salt water sea shore Give 'em pepper spray Scurrying insects Absurdly inflated ants Don't let them bug you Do they seem massive? Crushing nightmare strength implied In this joint fragment View the whole picture Insubstantial sketch of a rain shrouded night scene Reason alone, or Measured and paid for powers Are inadequate Would you then capture Both the mountain and the mist? Haiku serves your need Lucius Alexander Well mounted, I ride My palindromedary Even through haiku Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

薔薇語 Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 Re: Haiku Hero To play with words And Expressing heart and soul tis truly haiku Insecurely sat Amid a sea of trials One must choose to stand Tis Right or Tis Left One's choice, another's order Was it right or not? A star filled night The Wolves' Moon, Cold wind blows Her eyes gleam with fire Now Born was the chance Counted were the first steps now they never stop La Rose.
