Haiku rules are tough.
How to ensure compliance?
Just write rev’rently!
Most geeks I adore
But those poetry Trekkies
Can still chap my ass
The 5-7-5 form
Is not strictly required
But let’s not go there!
'Hawks scored a touchdown.
Cornerback whined “He pushed me!”
Dumb ref threw a flag.
Ben Roethlisberger
Didn’t cross the damn goal line.
Dumb ref said he did
Seattle Seahawks
Weren’t guilty of holding.
Dumb ref said they were.
Refs went to Vegas
Collected ten million bucks.
Dumb refs not so dumb!
Then how do we know a haiku is a haiku? Just because it’s cryptic, short and doesn’t (generally) rhyme?
Five-seven-five poem
Ball must cross the end zone plane
Within these rules - score!
Haikus only, please.
It is as simple as this -
I get up early.
Ben Franklin said it:
“Early to bed” and so on.
Yet, I watched it all.
Too bad for ‘Hawks fans.
But whining over bad calls
Never solved nothin’.
If I had five cents
Every time the Bucs got hosed
I’d buy something nice.
Steelers - so old school
The Fashion Refs have spoken
Lime green trim is wrong
Do not like football,
So I watch “The Simpsons” instead.
Three great episodes
Treehouse of Horror
First, then Christmas repeated
Lastly, Sideshow Bob.
My Rabid Ferrets
Are the 1-On-1 Pool Champs
Woohoo! Thanks, Steelers!
Twelth Man - let’s hear you
The Seahawks’ day has now come
Oops - interception
Fighting ignorance
Lazy default source and cite
Wikipedia!
Dictionary speaks
the hallowed rule: unbroken
it is “rev-r&nt-lE”
Toss the pigskin far
Giant grunting football guys
Smash each other hard
New plasma TV
High def, TiVO with slo-mo
I make the right call
Game stays on too late
I can not get guests to leave
Go home already!
Too many cocktails
Please move game to Saturday
Work hungover sucks.
Whining SeaHawks fans
Yes you got screwed on some calls
Now get over it.
Neville was dreadful
He should have stayed at home
Oh say can you sing?
Half time was awful
No cool wardrobe malfunction?
Don’t bother watching
The single bright spot
Stevie Wonder still has it
He can rock the house!
Play the online sound
Listen to the syllables
Rev-er-ent…what now?
Animal Planet
Glad I watched Puppy Bowl 2
Pros made dogs look good!
Some one played a game?
I don’t remember a game.
I was hung-over…
Horse collar is bad.
Hey Ref, why not throw a flag?
Its stuck up your ass.
