Hungry masses plead
for nourishments from the gods.
Exodus begins.

If your bored, why not go to a spelling class seen as though you can't spell 'Boredom' correctly :D

For one so self-righteous, your failure to use the correct form of "you're" stands out like a sore thumb.

The temple priest speaks
stiffles cries of the hungry.
Exodus begins.

Limerick!

It is often said of Haiku
That the form is so simple and true
yet there's more to the storm
than the clouds of the form
and by losing that you get lost, too.

The poor man who would seek to contrive
just to make his verse five-seven-five
had best vacate the joint
as he's missing the point
if at greater endeavors he'd strive.

Falling flakes of snow
winter upon the temple.
Contented monks sleep.

Poetry, an art
My Haiku, simply untamed
Too many syllables

Sharks who can speak, tongues
Sharper than teeth, fish jumping
Out of the water.

Subtle turn of stroke,
cold bud into spring blossom,
only the keen sees.

big bad billy pulled his belly button out

Haiku!

Spin the snowy wheel;
Touch the little white buttons.
iPod: I love thee.

Also, I didn't write this, but it's very very fantastic (it was in the newspaper the other day):

Decent smelling boy,

I should sit here more

Yay! Haha I love that haiku.
