Haiku

[Writer61]

This thread reminds me of the fun of playing Diplomacy, but only communicating in haiku.

A traditional game
With unconventional comms
Seasons aplenty

 

[Voboy]

Agenda! Outrage!
Bad faith presumed. Convo? Dead.
We can't have nice things.

 

[SmilingLez]

I held the mirror
They saw the beasts they had fed
Their monsters grinned back

Election Season

Showers trickled;
Sunshine raised temperatures;
The running began.

Election Season

Showers trickled;
Sunshine raised temperatures;
The running began.

Clacton in two weeks
Populist running again
Can Count Binface win?

 

[Voboy]

Trickle becomes stream
Stream becomes river, quickly:
Reject-story threads.

 

[SmilingLez]

Monday

apathy sits still
nothing moves me anymore
i forget to try

 

[Writer61]

Trickle becomes stream
Stream becomes river, quickly:
Reject-story threads.

No man ever steps
in the same river twice, for
the water flows on

With apologies to Heraclitus.

 

[SmilingLez]

Empty kettle sits.
They take, don't care, break it all.
Kindness ends so cold.

 

[Voboy]

Perspectives can change:
Emptiness is still fullness.
It's air, not water.

 

[SmilingLez]

Peanut butter smears.
Grape jelly drips down my chin.
Simple, perfect bliss.

 

[Writer61]

Windows are open
Dogs barking, Seagulls squawking
A bloody racket!

 

[SmilingLez]

Bug report is sent.
But the silence says it all.
No profit, no fix.

 

[Writer61]

It is summertime
Ice creams are in the freezer
Blood sugar at risk

 

[Writer61]

Recently waxed
My balls dangle, soft and smooth
Ready to be sucked

 

[Voboy]

Morning enjoyment:
Dawn. Coffee. Patio. Chair.
Chipmunk at my feet.

 

[SmilingLez]

Dopamine spike high.
Crash leaves you chasing the next.
Empty when it fades.

 

[Dave2206]

I want you so bad!
Well this is really awkward.
Post nut clarity.

 

[SmilingLez]

I lean in closer
your breath catches in the dark
we don't say a word

 

[Voboy]

Such sweet bitterness
On the tongue from the East Sea:
Ca phe. Condensed milk.
