A haiku thread? Haiku is that?

[Flying Mullet]

Let's see how creative our members are in a random haiku thread. "But Mulley, I don't know how to write a haiku!" you exclaim, extremely distraught. "Not to worry my little Haikulet, writing a haiku is simple. There are three lines to a haiku and there are five syllables on the first line, seven on the second and five on the third. There are more advanced forms and definitions, but we'll keep it simple for today's lesson. Perhaps a haiku about haiku will help ease your angst."

<i>Use five syllables
then with seven syllables
finish with five more</i>

"But what should I write my haiku about?" you ask, starting to feel comfortable with the idea of writing in sentence fragments of odd-numbered syllables. "That part is simple. Go to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random">the random article generator on Wikipedia</a> and write a haiku about the article/subject that you are sent to."

Now go, my little Haikulets, make sweet syllable love to the world!

p.s. You know you loved the pun in the thread title!

Look at the one in my sig or in Rantzien's 'Gaiku' thread for now. I'll think some new ones up later.

Even better:

We're on our way out
From fighting in the forest

Damn it, we're all dead.

Speedy thing goes in
Orange portal to blue portal
Speedy thing comes out

Standing on my face
Up down up down up down up
Hey you, knock it off.

A long black trenchcoat,
Silver hair, mommy issues
And yet you like him?

I picked "Through the Fire and Flames".
My fingers hurt now.

Touhou 6: The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil
At last you reach her
A psychotic young lady
You don't continue

Touhou 7: Perfect Cherry Blossom
Phantom butterflies
Alternate from straight to swirl
Before blossoms bloom.
