Haiku for the week...

*The Little Hunter*

Sneak, crouch, pounce..MEOW!
What's hiding under that towel?
Look what I caught, wow!:catgirl:

 

More then just a number

Heh, that's a cute haiku. As for all the poems: damn, they're all very good. I just know I'm going to ruin this threat with my silly attempts at poetry....

More then just a number

I want to leave the digital traffic jam
I want to be judged by who I am
Don’t want to be judged by some test
I don’t need to be better then the rest

Living life day after day
Nobody tells you to go out or play
You have to work until your hands bleed
For some number on a sheet
On a bank account or diploma
A simple number can be a dilemma

It’s like each human is the same
I’m sick of this governmental game
It’s like nobody is real
But there’s no number for what you feel

You can’t capture a human with a number
Will they ever understand?
I want to be more then just a number
I want to be, but can’t

 

my poem

well this is mine i don't think its my best work. this was one of my short ones i wrote.

Love is patient and kind, even though it hurts some times
It keeps you going on and on , love is not jealous or
Untrusting, unwanted, and or perfect it has its ups and
Downs its twist and turns but no matter how hard it maybe ill
Always be here beside you throw the hard time and the easy
Love does not keep a record of wrong its not happy or evil
But it is happy with the truth love never gives up no matter how
Hard it is to get by you should never give up on love because it will never
Give up on you neither will I .
even though were so far apart were so close together.
Let me be the one that you run to,
Everything that you’re going through,
Ill be here to try and comfort you,
And if you feel kind of lonely, you just call me
Anytime, any place, anywhere
Let me be your angel,
You don’t have to worry, I’m with you,
what I do, how I am, what im like,
what makes you like me,
what makes you feel this way about me,
Every thing you have ever told me ,
I have believed because I was you’re angel ,
even when your asleep,Ill be here for you , even when life for you
Is at a dead end , ill still be here , still be your angel,
and most of all your lover.

haiku

here is my haiku

hungry, raging dog
sought the rear of a mailman
tearing off a piece

 

Here's some Poetry I wrote:

I walk down a Forest Road
Dark menacing trees creep upon me
The path becomes narrower as the branches slash my face
I begin to think the darkness will never end

Suddenly I come across a grassy opening
The sun shines bright upon my face
The trees are green, flourishing with color
In this clearing I become at ease, drawn in by the beauty

After resting in the grove I feel stronger,
And I undertake a more dangerous road
Now I am not afraid
Of what awaits in the deep darkness..

Heres another about waking up from a nightmare:

As the day begins to fade, so does your mind
Into the lands of night, where the deep shadows lie
A fog invades the senses, driving them away
Leaving the mind defenseless to the ravages of thought
They beat, they burn, they bruise,
They lock your sanity away,
Making you think these thoughts, bringing them to life
You now make your own world, but you hardly interact
You can only stand and watch, screaming screamless shouts
As everything falls into despair, and you know that its real
But how is something real if you don't feel it?
Can it all be fake, figments of a defenseless mind?
You stand up and shout, your senses have returned.
Your thoughts have been pushed back into the deep,
They only wait to resurface once more.
OLD MEMORIES SELDOM FADE, THEY SAY....


so what do ya'll think????

 

HAI! i wrote this when i was very small but i stil remember!

--
I am a T-rex,thats not hard to say.
I sleep in the Morning and play in the day.
But when i'm the meanest,is in the night,
when all the other dinosaurs have turned out the light.
But sometimes i get lonely,i'm sunk in the tub.
But once they get to know me,they'll fall in love!!
--

ha! i know its corny but i was little! dont throw pies at meeee~~~

 

BTW Gohan_darky dude! i like yer first one! although i aint into such things. I really dun like all the dark stuff,i see that enough! but its good. I always had this thing about non-rhyming poems. i say its not a poem if it dont rhyme! its yer inner thoughts! ^^

Second Samurai

The graceful fall of the samurai in feudal Japan was a part of history I found very difficult to cope with. Here is a rurouni who couldn't let go of his honor and his way of life.

People pass me on the street with care,
I stand in defiance, my face plastered with rain.
They wince and pretend that I'm not there,
I bite my lip and try not to cry out in pain.
Many of my cuts still bleed, a pool forms at my feet,
I see children skip bye with fluffy white bread,
And I wonder when I will finally be able to eat.
My stomach grumbles, and headaches fill my head,
As I hold my sword closer and hope it will all end soon.
There's so much that all of them have forgot,
Not me. I will embrace what was given to me.
I will carry on the legend this sword has brought,
I will stand where everyone can see.
And show them what a sword can do!
Show them I still remember everything,
Show them all they once knew,
Show them birds still sing,
and humans will bleed forever,
and the sword will live forever.
As I live by the sword.

Re: More then just a number

That was beautiful, tears. It really captures our way of life. It's the kind of thing that makes you wish for fantasy worlds and stuff. Kudos to you, and well said!

 

Re: Haiku for the week...

Lol, that was really cute! ^_^

 

Gohan Darkmoor, Very nice! The classical metaphors of life. WEll crafted and no cheap rhymes. Kepp it up!

 

For ****s and giggles, I've been doing some Trigun pictures lately and alwasy found it interesting, or at least fun, to write in little words on the pictures and such (see my post in the Art section, Genocide thread, for example). So, for a Vash the Stampede picture I made up this little haiku. (It'd help if you'd seen the series to really get this)

~~~

Spider, butterfly
Is there a way to save both?
There just has to be

~~~

Well that was the suckiest suck that ever sucked. Enjoy!

 

Oops! I didn't see the other thread. People seem to go here more than at the other one.

Well, here's my Escaflowne poem that I wrote all by myself. It took me a couple of hours since I can't rhyme too well but I really tried. Tell me what you think:

Destiny and Angels


~~~~~~



Visions of a planet



And an angel she did see



The power to foretell the future



Would lead her to her destiny



A bet with her superior



Under 13 seconds for the 100-meter dash



Would win her a kiss



But a boy she did clash



He spoke a weird language



And ordered them to run



But the dragon appeared



And it was time for some fun



He fought as best he could



He tried to defend those he didn’t know



He needed the energist



That bright stone with the pink glow



He finished the dragon off



And took out the stone



She asked him if he was okay



But he answered in a hostile tone



“I’m not so bad off that I need a woman to worry about me”



She slapped him and yelled



He really didn’t see



That she was truly worried about him



She wasn’t dancing with glee



“Why can’t you at least say ‘thank you’?!”



He realized his mistake and was going to speak



But the pillar arrived and carried them away



Now her friends were left with answers to seek



She arrived on a strange planet



The boy by her side



Wolf-men appeared



And offered them a ride



They were taken to Fanelia



Where he presented the stone



Everyone was impressed



As they all gasped



He had succeeded in his quest



She was taken to the castle



She missed her home



Who should arrive then but an annoying little cat-girl



Who started to roam



She took possession of a magical necklace



And took off like a cat



But the other was right on her heels



She wished she had a bat



Many adventures ensued



Ones that changed her life



Her friends were right by her side



To them fighting was (a) rife



Problems then came



Not those of battle but those of love



As she fell for one guy



The other was jealous of (Allen)



As time went by she began to think



‘Who’s the angel from my vision?’



She had no idea that he was near



She had only been wishin’ he would appear



Her feelings for Allen began to leave



As her feelings for Van grew



But she still didn’t know



That he was her angel too



Finally the time came when she would have to part



By then she knew whom she loved



She was hoping he felt the same way



She didn’t want her feelings shoved



They said their goodbyes



Her eyes (were) filled with tears



He looked up at her sadly



He showed no fears



“We’ll see each other again, my love.”



“Do not fret.”



“I would rather part from you and see you later”



“Then never to have met.”



She took in his words of comfort



And made a promise to the stars



“I’ll return to him one day.”



She wouldn’t let there be scars



And on some days, people claim



When they’re on their last breath



They claim to see an angel carrying his love



Then they sink into death



The story of an angel and his love



Is one people love to see



They’ll never forget how it happened



Or how it came to be…

ok here is my first poem outside of school work, hope ya like it, even thought it will probably suck assbelonkers

i lay here, staring towards the sky
always thinking, wondering why

many people must hate,
they all discriminate

i sit down asking for when,
will i be free of this pen

for my pleasure and for my pain,
forever the sky seems to rain

why cant people be friends and cherish?
they always want this love to perish

war is whats on everymind
keeping us in a bind

the media destroys and kills,
while people only seek those bills

greed has taken over our hearts,
damn-nation caused by moneys start

censorship has become and art
like a poisonous little dart

and i lay here, staring towards the heavens,
hoping for that roll of double sevens

for that we will know all is lost,
when we care only about cost

soon we will be the last
looking back, wanting past


ok i guess thats it. tell me what you think, it probably does suck though, like i said

 

Hmm, it seems no one is commenting on otehr people's. Wanna do this?
Before you post your poem, comment on one of the ones above you. ^_^

 

Re: Re: More then just a number

Thankies ^.^ That's such a sweet thing to say! As for your suggestion: I'm okay with that. "Comment on the stuff the one wrote before you." *nods*

Alucard666: It's message is sad, but true. I like it. It's one of those poems you read, reread, nod to yourself and agree with what they say. I like the kind of poems that kinda drag you nose to acknowledge the horrible truths in the world. The last thing on my mind is to think that it 'sucks'. I mean, a lot of rhyme is being 'forced' into rhyme for the sake of it having to rhyme for a poem (yeah, I'm guilty of that crime, I know), the first couple of lines I thought to sound a bit 'forced', but as the poem continues it keeps getting better.
"and i lay here, staring towards the heavens,
hoping for that roll of double sevens" -> I particularly like those two lines. Anyway, I think you did a great job, even despite those first few less good lines, and I will look forward to reading more from you.

As for the poem-thingy I wrote:

The roads of our life

You travel forwards, day by day
Don’t turn around, make no delay
What’s done is done
Let regret be gone

Life seems like one big road
Some travel light, others with load
Life seems like one big street
You don’t know who you’ll meet

Life seems like one long course
A journey filled with remorse
Like an endless game with no begin
And you’re not sure on how to win

A road so twisty, turned and endless
Walking on it seems like madness
Pointless, impossible, unable to defy
Yet you can’t be sure if you don’t try

You travel forwards day by day
Don’t turn around, make no delay
Just don’t travel anywhere out of obligation
Think for yourself: what is your destination?
