A Haiku, by I

Aghast! Hullo there
Standing on a field of green
Lobster stew is good.

--Thank you, Thank you....

A cold dungeon
The silence is soon broken
By Leroy Jenkins.

Hudson attempted
a Haiku but he soon found
that I owned his face

[Aeric Ecrai]

Dun-ge-on?

I SUCK AT SYLLABLES SHUT UUUP.

I was also attempting to remember the Haiku I actually used in English class, which was exactly like that one, but correct.

[anasa]

Did you guys know this?
There is a type of haiku
that goes on like this,

In a whole series,
Although I have forgotten
what that type is called.

Ya know, music with lyrics could be considered poetry. It has a rhythm and everything, it's just put to music.
In Eighteen hundred and forty-one,
I put me curdoroy britches on.
I put me curdoroy britches on
To work upon the railway.

Fil-a-me-oo-re-oo-re-ay
Fil-a-me-oo-re-oo-re-ay,
Fil-a-me-oo-re-oo-re-ay.
To work upon the railway!

A song called, "Patty Worked on the Railway". XD

This is the poem I wrote as part of my Creative Writing final:

If you laugh at the gods they will dissapear,
like dust in the wind,
like salt in the sea,
and never come back again.

Whip the creatures of lore, and they'll run away,
like mice from a cat,
like ice from the heat,
and never come back again.

Pervert what you're taught, and you'll forget it all,
like night forgets day,
like love forgets time,
and never remember it.

Can you not see?
Can you not hear?
If you laugh at the gods, they will dissapear.

[Bastian Farix]

Wonderful...

[Anasykins]

Hah! XD Do you mean that in a sarcastic way?

Today, I was in a car going through Bella Vista, when I suddenly started to hear a classical music piece in my head whose name I could not place. Because I'm no good at writing music, and I didn't even know what half of the instruments that were being played were, I decided to match up what I heard with words and write a poem with the same flow as the song. Enjoy.

Grundlebush, Grundlebush,
thick and long,
Grundlebush, Grundlebush,
climbing up the hillside.

Grundlebush, Grundlebush,
trodding along,
Grundlebush, Grundlebush,
hiding in plain sight.

Grundlebush, Grundlebush,
know what's wrong,
Grundlebush, Grundlebush,
never had to decide.
They're-

smarter
and harder
and tarter
then you.
They're-

trickers
who're slicker,
though not quicker, it's true.
They're-

smarter
and harder
and tarter
then you.
They have-

stronger
and longer
lives then yours could ever be.

Where do they come from?

How are they born?

Are they unwanted?

Do they ever feel forlorn?

Their leaving's
decieving.
They're believing
their own lies.

They're believing their own lies
'til they become true. Yes,

their leaving's
decieving.
They're believing
their own lies.

They're believing their own lies,
at least, until the day's through.

Grundlebush, Grundlebush,
thick and long,
Grundlebush, Grundlebush,
climbing up the hillside.

Grundlebush, Grundlebush,
trodding along,
Grundlebush, Grundlebush,
hiding in plain sight.

[Cal Zech Uzamar Ziondel]

1 Blessed is the man
who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
or stand in the way of sinners
or sit in the seat of mockers.

2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
and on his law he meditates day and night.

3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.

4 Not so the wicked!
They are like chaff
that the wind blows away.

5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

6 For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish.
1 Why do the nations conspire
and the peoples plot in vain?

2 The kings of the earth take their stand
and the rulers gather together
against the LORD
and against his Anointed One.

3 "Let us break their chains," they say,
"and throw off their fetters."

4 The One enthroned in heaven laughs;
the Lord scoffs at them.

5 Then he rebukes them in his anger
and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,

6 "I have installed my King
on Zion, my holy hill."

7 I will proclaim the decree of the LORD :
He said to me, "You are my Son ;
today I have become your Father.

8 Ask of me,
and I will make the nations your inheritance,
the ends of the earth your possession.

9 You will rule them with an iron scepter ;
you will dash them to pieces like pottery."

10 Therefore, you kings, be wise;
be warned, you rulers of the earth.

11 Serve the LORD with fear
and rejoice with trembling.

12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry
and you be destroyed in your way,
for his wrath can flare up in a moment.
Blessed are all who take refuge in him.
1 O LORD, how many are my foes!
How many rise up against me!

2 Many are saying of me,
"God will not deliver him."
Selah

3 But you are a shield around me, O LORD;
you bestow glory on me and lift up my head.

4 To the LORD I cry aloud,
and he answers me from his holy hill.
Selah

5 I lie down and sleep;
I wake again, because the LORD sustains me.

6 I will not fear the tens of thousands
drawn up against me on every side.

7 Arise, O LORD!
Deliver me, O my God!
Strike all my enemies on the jaw;
break the teeth of the wicked.

8 From the LORD comes deliverance.
May your blessing be on your people.
Selah
1 Answer me when I call to you,
O my righteous God.
Give me relief from my distress;
be merciful to me and hear my prayer.

2 How long, O men, will you turn my glory into shame
How long will you love delusions and seek false gods
Selah

3 Know that the LORD has set apart the godly for himself;
the LORD will hear when I call to him.

4 In your anger do not sin;
when you are on your beds,
search your hearts and be silent.
Selah

5 Offer right sacrifices
and trust in the LORD.

6 Many are asking, "Who can show us any good?"
Let the light of your face shine upon us, O LORD.

7 You have filled my heart with greater joy
than when their grain and new wine abound.

8 I will lie down and sleep in peace,
for you alone, O LORD,
make me dwell in safety.
1 Give ear to my words, O LORD,
consider my sighing.

2 Listen to my cry for help,
my King and my God,
for to you I pray.

3 In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice;
in the morning I lay my requests before you
and wait in expectation.

4 You are not a God who takes pleasure in evil;
with you the wicked cannot dwell.

5 The arrogant cannot stand in your presence;
you hate all who do wrong.

6 You destroy those who tell lies;
bloodthirsty and deceitful men
the LORD abhors.

7 But I, by your great mercy,
will come into your house;
in reverence will I bow down
toward your holy temple.

8 Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness
because of my enemies—
make straight your way before me.

9 Not a word from their mouth can be trusted;
their heart is filled with destruction.
Their throat is an open grave;
with their tongue they speak deceit.

10 Declare them guilty, O God!
Let their intrigues be their downfall.
Banish them for their many sins,
for they have rebelled against you.

11 But let all who take refuge in you be glad;
let them ever sing for joy.
Spread your protection over them,
that those who love your name may rejoice in you.

12 For surely, O LORD, you bless the righteous;
you surround them with your favor as with a shield.
1O LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger
or discipline me in your wrath.

2 Be merciful to me, LORD, for I am faint;
O LORD, heal me, for my bones are in agony.

3 My soul is in anguish.
How long, O LORD, how long?

4 Turn, O LORD, and deliver me;
save me because of your unfailing love.

5 No one remembers you when he is dead.
Who praises you from the grave

6 I am worn out from groaning;
all night long I flood my bed with weeping
and drench my couch with tears.

7 My eyes grow weak with sorrow;
they fail because of all my foes.

8 Away from me, all you who do evil,
for the LORD has heard my weeping.

9 The LORD has heard my cry for mercy;
the LORD accepts my prayer.

10 All my enemies will be ashamed and dismayed;
they will turn back in sudden disgrace.
1 O LORD my God, I take refuge in you;
save and deliver me from all who pursue me,

2 or they will tear me like a lion
and rip me to pieces with no one to rescue me.

3 O LORD my God, if I have done this
and there is guilt on my hands-

4 if I have done evil to him who is at peace with me
or without cause have robbed my foe-

5 then let my enemy pursue and overtake me;
let him trample my life to the ground
and make me sleep in the dust.
Selah

6 Arise, O LORD, in your anger;
rise up against the rage of my enemies.
Awake, my God; decree justice.

7 Let the assembled peoples gather around you.
Rule over them from on high;

8 let the LORD judge the peoples.
Judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness,
according to my integrity, O Most High.

9 O righteous God,
who searches minds and hearts,
bring to an end the violence of the wicked
and make the righteous secure.

10 My shield is God Most High,
who saves the upright in heart.

11 God is a righteous judge,
a God who expresses his wrath every day.

12 If he does not relent,
he will sharpen his sword;
he will bend and string his bow.

13 He has prepared his deadly weapons;
he makes ready his flaming arrows.

14 He who is pregnant with evil
and conceives trouble gives birth to disillusionment.

15 He who digs a hole and scoops it out
falls into the pit he has made.

16 The trouble he causes recoils on himself;
his violence comes down on his own head.

17 I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness
and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.

1 O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory
above the heavens.

2 From the lips of children and infants
you have ordained praise
because of your enemies,
to silence the foe and the avenger.

3 When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,

4 what is man that you are mindful of him,
the son of man that you care for him?

5 You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings
and crowned him with glory and honor.

6 You made him ruler over the works of your hands;
you put everything under his feet:

7 all flocks and herds,
and the beasts of the field,

8 the birds of the air,
and the fish of the sea,
all that swim the paths of the seas.

9 O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!

1 I will praise you, O LORD, with all my heart;
I will tell of all your wonders.

2 I will be glad and rejoice in you;
I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.

3 My enemies turn back;
they stumble and perish before you.

4 For you have upheld my right and my cause;
you have sat on your throne, judging righteously.

5 You have rebuked the nations and destroyed the wicked;
you have blotted out their name for ever and ever.

6 Endless ruin has overtaken the enemy,
you have uprooted their cities;
even the memory of them has perished.

7 The LORD reigns forever;
he has established his throne for judgment.

8 He will judge the world in righteousness;
he will govern the peoples with justice.

9 The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed,
a stronghold in times of trouble.

10 Those who know your name will trust in you,
for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you.

11 Sing praises to the LORD, enthroned in Zion;
proclaim among the nations what he has done.

12 For he who avenges blood remembers;
he does not ignore the cry of the afflicted.

13 O LORD, see how my enemies persecute me!
Have mercy and lift me up from the gates of death,

14 that I may declare your praises
in the gates of the Daughter of Zion
and there rejoice in your salvation.

15 The nations have fallen into the pit they have dug;
their feet are caught in the net they have hidden.

16 The LORD is known by his justice;
the wicked are ensnared by the work of their hands.
Higgaion. Selah

17 The wicked return to the grave,
all the nations that forget God.

18 But the needy will not always be forgotten,
nor the hope of the afflicted ever perish.

19 Arise, O LORD, let not man triumph;
let the nations be judged in your presence.

20 Strike them with terror, O LORD;
let the nations know they are but men.
Selah
1 Why, O LORD, do you stand far off?
Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?

2 In his arrogance the wicked man hunts down the weak,
who are caught in the schemes he devises.

3 He boasts of the cravings of his heart;
he blesses the greedy and reviles the LORD.

4 In his pride the wicked does not seek him;
in all his thoughts there is no room for God.

5 His ways are always prosperous;
he is haughty and your laws are far from him;
he sneers at all his enemies.

6 He says to himself, "Nothing will shake me;
I'll always be happy and never have trouble."

7 His mouth is full of curses and lies and threats;
trouble and evil are under his tongue.

8 He lies in wait near the villages;
from ambush he murders the innocent,
watching in secret for his victims.

9 He lies in wait like a lion in cover;
he lies in wait to catch the helpless;
he catches the helpless and drags them off in his net.

10 His victims are crushed, they collapse;
they fall under his strength.

11 He says to himself, "God has forgotten;
he covers his face and never sees."

12 Arise, LORD! Lift up your hand, O God.
Do not forget the helpless.

13 Why does the wicked man revile God?
Why does he say to himself,
"He won't call me to account"?

14 But you, O God, do see trouble and grief;
you consider it to take it in hand.
The victim commits himself to you;
you are the helper of the fatherless.

15 Break the arm of the wicked and evil man;
call him to account for his wickedness
that would not be found out.

16 The LORD is King for ever and ever;
the nations will perish from his land.

17 You hear, O LORD, the desire of the afflicted;
you encourage them, and you listen to their cry,

18 defending the fatherless and the oppressed,
in order that man, who is of the earth, may terrify no more.

And you should know, John.

In case this fellow comes back:

1) It isn't an Oblivion roleplay, but that game rocks. It was originally, but it has evolved over time.

2) Perhaps you could explain what is so strange about them?

3) Yeah, some of our members have commitment problems in this area, and I understand.

~Daily man come on
The 6 o'clock news.
Says somebody been shot;
somebody's been abused.
Somebody blew up a building
somebody stole a car.
Somebody got a-way,
Somebody didn't get too far.
Yeah; they didn't get too far.

Grandpapi told my papi
"Back in my day, son,
A man had to answer fo the wicked things done.
Take all the rope in Texas
Find a tall oak tree.
Round up all of them bad boys
Hang them high in this tree, yeah.
For all the people to see."

'Cause justice is-a one thing
You should always find.
You gotta saddle up your boys,
You gotta draw a hard line.

When the gun smoke settles,
We'll sing a victory tune,
And we'll all meet back at the local saloon.
And we'll raise up our glasses
Against evil forces singin'
"Whisky for my men,
And beer for my horses."

We got too many gangsters doin'
Dirty deeds.
Too much corruption and
Crime in the streets.
It's time the long arm of the law
Put a few more in the ground!
Send them all to their maker,
And He'll settle 'em down.
You can bet He'll settle 'em down.

And justice is-a one thing
You should always find.
You gotta saddle up your boys,
You gotta draw a hard line.

When the gun smoke settles,
We'll sing a victory tune,
And we'll all meet back at the local saloon.
And we'll raise up our glasses
Against evil forces singin'
"Whisky for my men,
And beer for my horses."

Ya' know justice is-a one thing
You should always find.
You gotta saddle up your boys,
You gotta draw a hard line.

When the gun smoke settles,
We'll sing a victory tune,
And we'll all meet back at the local saloon.
And we'll raise up our glasses
Against evil forces singin'
"Whisky for my men,
And beer for my horses."
Singin'
"Whisky for my men,
And beer for my horses."


I love that song. XD
