HAIKU for PEOPLE
In this game your haiku's last line becomes the new haiku's first line!

(standard 3-line, 5 - 7 - 5-syllable pattern -- does NOT need to rhyme):


It looks like fun but I've never tried haiku. So I'll start it off with one from the old masters, Etsujin.

Covered with the flowers,
Instantly I'd like to die
In this dream of ours!

(so you use "In this dream of ours" as your first line and so on...)

---

Reality hides,
But only from the blinded;
Vision, guides the wise!

Why can't I have one?
I've been a good boy all day
I crave a muffin!

Oh, how sweet it is
to meet a kindred spirit;
I pray it will last.

You won't be lonely
For there is someone waiting
To rest in your heart

---

Their wives got horny
And females will know this fact
George Clooney caused that

"Never argue with idiots, they drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience"

To make it up for the last lines that did not get used:

I pray it will last
To rest in your pulsing heart
Our sweet memories

Thank you grammargeek for setting us straight! :)

I miss my little dog
He loved to lie on my lap
And wag his cute tail

(bugdoctor messed it up twice)

I pray it will last
This time we call life
Birth, life, death so fast

To rest in your heart
Forever and ever
As one, as lovers...

(before it got messed up it was really rock'n cool)

You cannot reason someone out of something they were not reasoned into. Jonathan Swift

---

Ride is unsurpassed
Walk can be a blast
I'd rather sail

---

"Never argue with idiots, they drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience"

(resuming the 5-7-5 syllable rule)

Soon I will be free
To enjoy this awesome world,
Relieved of sorrow.

Deep anger cold heart
Blame yourself before others
Become very wise.

Job 33:15 "In a dream, in a vision of the night, When deep sleep falls upon men, In slumberings upon the bed;" Theology 101 "If He doesn't know everything then He isn't God."

Precious moments
Like my first birthday present
A giant teddy!

Become very wise
For there is competition
In this vast vast world.

Birdsong resonates
With echoing chirps and tweets
My heart leaps with joy

that's truly selfless
give your love without asking
and share it with joy

In a fit of rage
The door was slammed
And bags were packed

"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs." -Thomas Jefferson

In a fit of rage
The front door was slammed
And designer bags were packed
