Documenting Every Day In Concise Syllables

Twitter limits you to 140 characters; Facebook limits you to a little more. Haikus limit you to 5-7-5 syllables; but in the end, all that limits you is your mind. Be unlimited. Be creative. Be to the point.

I Really Have to Pee....

I wrote an awesome haiku in class today as we were talking about Orson Welle's radio play of H.G. Well's War of the Worlds and the ensuing mass hysteria which followed.

But before I post that, I must bring to you...Haikus of the Cthulu War.

Jesse wrote this haiku for me:
For you dear, a gift:
A pulpy, tentacled death;
Cthulhu Army.
>:€ >:€ >:€ >:€ >:€
>:€ >:€ >:€ >:€ >:€ >:€ >:€
>:€ >:€ >:€ >:€ >:€

To which I responded with:
Cthulu thief lurks
waiting for attack moment...
stealthy victory.

And here is where we are now.

At any rate, here is my sci-fi inspired haiku from class today:
Ah, hysteria
widespread panic of those who
believe all they hear.
