In Great Honour of a "Kallisti", the eclectic Le Elohm, I endeavour to continue the thread in Principia!

A ......5, 7, 5, format,  to include a "next topic" post!

Goes like this........

Across the valley
Grey misty vapours pour in.
Yorkshire Fog descends.


Next topic.......Mountains.
Yong Maeng Jong Jin

Conquistadore Nunya

Atop the plateau
the sound of man does not reach.
I recline in peace

I hope that one's good.  I'm a little rusty on haiku.

Next topic is the firmament, the ether, space, or what word you use for what envelops this place
Conquistadore Nunya, High Templar of the Flying Octopus Pilot School Cabal

"Give me da bass!"

digiti puppet

well now, philosophy class rears it's golden head :

think on heidegger
reach a hand past space : now do
we dwell in nothing?


okay there love. i answered yours....


next topic : cookies as a metaphor.
"bullshit makes the flowers grow and that's beautiful."

"karmic enlightenment tastes like sock!"

- d1git1 puppet, our lady of the cybernetic, high tsarina shit disturber of the flying octopus pilot school cabal

Lord Trout

Gee, left me an easy topic there, didn't you?  :shock:

In the vast, dark void,
a peanut-butter cookie
is better than air


Yes, I am rusty with the old haiku as well... Next topic:

"Farm Equipment"
Well, shit.

zenji

Tractor pulling hay.
Insecticides sprayed about!
We all end up worms!


Next topic.....Water.
Yong Maeng Jong Jin

Captain Tangent

Spring is in the air
She said, as the clouds above
began to leak down.

Yes, that's bloody terrible, sorry.

Next topic: A man lying unconcious.

Lister

Let's try this haiku thing...

Five bottles of rum
Ten joints full of top-notch weed
I fear the morning

next topic: Fire
When I was a little man
Playdough came in a little can
I was Star Wars' biggest fan
Now I'm stuck without a plan
GI Joe was an action man
Shaggy drove the mystery van
Devo was my favorite band
Take me back to my happy land

Conquistadore Nunya

This one's for the cabal homies

His hand hits the stove,
but Henry Rollins cares not -
He's stronger than fire!

Next topic: Frozen peas
Conquistadore Nunya, High Templar of the Flying Octopus Pilot School Cabal

"Give me da bass!"

Lord Trout

Stir-fry vegetables,
Frozen, with peas and corn,
Taste good with chicken


Next Topic... Hand Cream
Well, shit.

zenji

Chapped fingers so dry.
"Neutragena" from Norway,
Saves flaking digits.


Next topic..........cellphones! :x
Yong Maeng Jong Jin

Lister

silence in train
broken by a disney tune
the pain will not end

next topic: Pizza
When I was a little man
Playdough came in a little can
I was Star Wars' biggest fan
Now I'm stuck without a plan
GI Joe was an action man
Shaggy drove the mystery van
Devo was my favorite band
Take me back to my happy land

Velvet Jesus

Dough-faced pizza man,
your cheeks rise like baking bread.
Your grin is a knife.

Next topic:  clowns!   :twisted:
"He seems sincere, despite his halting speech patterns and the possible lack of vowels in his name."

zenji

White face and red lips.
His trousers always fall down.
The tears of a clown!

next topic.....statues.
Yong Maeng Jong Jin

Velvet Jesus

A head of marble
A wintry white sentinel
Eyes that cannot see.  

Next topic:  Kurt Vonnegut   :D
"He seems sincere, despite his halting speech patterns and the possible lack of vowels in his name."

Velvet Jesus

Sorry, didn't mean to kill the haiku game!  I'll change the "Next Topic" to:  your choice.  

:)
