Haiku Train

[oranggunung]

“Thanking you … er, thanks.”
Not a classic awards speech;
Not a classic film.

[Lake]

Not a classic film
but a contemporary
PG-13 film

[oranggunung]

PG-13 film -
death takes place off-camera,
blood is rarely seen.

[Lake]

Blood is rarely seen
in a cold creature. So
never expect that.

[juliadebeauvoir]

Never expect that,
you should ever expect to
never expect that.

[PhilipCFJohnson]

(wow what fun! I've never written a haiku before! I'm new so I hope you don't mind if I join in here. Okay so here goes:)

Never expect that
I would not allow you to
Because we're not fair

[writedis]

because we're not fair.
Who is? I cheat because I
dont love her darling.

[PhilipCFJohnson]

Don't love her darling
Or goodbye will daunt you when
The switch is turned off.

[Mickpjb]

The switch is turned off,
obviously for a reason,
shall I turn it on?

[PhilipCFJohnson]

Shall I turn it on?
Procrastination foils me!
No T.V. this time.

[writedis]

No T.V this time.
How much drama do I need?
My life is enough

[Mickpjb]

My life is enough,
I ponder life’s misfortunes?
Got to earn my crust!

[PhilipCFJohnson]

Got to earn my crust!
Bread does not come cheap these days!
Strictly sad, but true.

[Mickpjb]

Strictly sad, but true,
I want to be Scooby Doo.
But hate Scraggy Doo!

[PhilipCFJohnson]

But hate Scraggy do!
Hate is the mother of us!
Your mother and mine

[juliadebeauvoir]

Your mother and mine,
hanging out clothes on the line
there was a fist fight.


Old American (maybe British) child's diplomacy song when trying to choose another child for a game, job, etc. Kind of like Eenie Meanie Miney Moe:
"My mother and your mother were hanging out clothes.
My mother punched your mother in the nose.
What color was the blood?
(child shouts out any color)
Red!
Red! R-E-D spells red and you are not it"!

[Raisin]

There was a fist fight.
Your mother won, and she was
rewarded with jail.

[writedis]

Rewarded with jail.
Im an awkward male, I like
this school, it's my house.

[oranggunung]

This school, it’s my house.
I’m here, even at weekends.
I may have to move.

[PhilipCFJohnson]

I may have to move
In days of far off futures.
I remain for now.

[Raisin]

I remain for now,
tomorrow, I could be gone.
Not content to stay.

[juliadebeauvoir]

Not content to stay
at office Christmas party.
Lets get out of here!

[PhilipCFJohnson]

Let's get out of here!
Acknowledge our attraction,
Find a room somewhere

[Lake]

find a room somewhere
where nobody knows, except
our internal mind

[barrie]

Our internal mind
has bad claustrophobia -
time to let it out.
