@Cath — hmm, that’s borderline… some would say “Nyerrhe” has only one syllable, while others can drag it out to n syllables. Especially if you roll the RRRR, much like an irritated housecat.
And now back to our
Regularly scheduled
Friday haiku thread
1) No outraged banana advocates, yet?
2) Let’s hope that Rich doesn’t show this photo of several available bananas, *NOT* for Winston’s enjoyment …to Le Winston.
yeah, true — espec. judging from the recent exhibit of his *predator skillzzzz*…
(Winston, if you’re listening somehow, this is ALL IN FUN!! We still lubbz yor goofiness)
So much witty fun, so much kind intelligence.
I stand in awe of the Cute Community
I will save this link, and return for affirmation
when the world appears to be a hopeless heartless mess.
*bowing in grateful appreciation, bereft of haiku*
5^^now8ing,
I’ve wanted to ask before, but felt too doofy. I’m in a rather “Idon’tcareifIseemdoofy” mood, and seeing as how there are no thumbs to make me feel insecure i’ll go ahead and ask:
What the heck does your name mean? How do you say it? Is it something like 5-*something*- No WAITING?
It’s been a curiousity of mine for months. hopes ya don’t mind…
I just want to be able to sleep again…
@Cath – omg, I didn’t know about the morae!! I even teach poetry (including haiku) & didn’t know! A thousand thanks!
Also, I submit another thumbs-up to the end of the thumb ratings.
PS – To a couple of peeps who referred to Sharpies, something I discovered in childhood is that if you use your fingernail to carve into a banana skin, as the banana ripens the incisions darken & go black, so that you can “write” or “draw” on bananas in abundance this way. I kind of assumed that’s what this pic was of – ?
Ben and Nan are shocked-
a horrid hungry parrot
thinks their friend tastes good.
***
I regret to say
the procedure failed your son,
though he tastes quite fine.
@Tracatus — glad to hear my nerding out was not for naught I haven’t ever tried to write moraic haiku yet. Seems like it would be hard. Might make a fun/cruel assignment/exercise/game to give your students.
Five Cats- No Waiting
Thanks for your explanation,
That was very sweet
I’m done haiku-ing
I lack the patience you have…
Five-Seven-Five’s HARD!

Thanks kind CO peeps!
Insecurities surfaced;
Thumbs made me nervous.
@pyrit – I, too love le nom de screene. Yours is one o’ my favorites (tho I somehow thought you were a guy), as is GingerBean’s, and Noelegy’s, and kibblenibble, and and SoCalSis, and ArgyleDonkeypants, an’ Metz, an’ skippymom, an’ BerthaServant, an’ heck, I love ‘em all! (Would love to know what T.U.M.’s name’s about; also chanpon’s.)
P.S. That’s a beautiful ring-necked parakeet. I had one once and he plucked out all his feathers. P.P.S. Could this possibly be a record for the number of comments? What is the record?
The hound of Zeus, the verdant parakeet,
Shall violently fall upon thy flesh
And rend it as ’twere rags; and every day
And all day long shall thine unbidden guest
Sit at thy table, feasting on thy liver
(Apologies to Aeschylus – Prometheus Bound)
LMAO!!!!! That’s toooo funny!
Zee tasty morsel
From your belly I shall pluck
Dessert will be friends!
My heart bleeds
for the dead banana
and the fear that has overtaken
his survivors.

It’s so horrible!
He was so sweet, but now he’s
Just a birdie’s snack!

Marriage proposals,

Aw, thanks Patris, but I am already become betrothed to another.
But whenever I see a mutilated banana, I shall think of you and sigh.

This grim photograph
Was simply far too orange
For a banana

Technically, Theo
we should be counting morae,

not phonology.

Darn it, I forgot
to close my hyperlink.
Theo, can you help?
This will teach me not
to embed links in comments
without diligence.
(So sorries…)
I hate bananas
So get down with your bad self
You fruit killing bird
Theo you are quick
you helped me even
before I could ask.
(Thanks)
OK, I give up. Now I’m doing 5-5-5. Time to sit back and read (haikus).
Puddin’ party planned?
I shall crash said sweet party
and bring the cool whip!
1) No outraged banana advocates, yet?
2) Let’s hope that Rich doesn’t show this photo of several available bananas, *NOT* for Winston’s enjoyment …to Le Winston.
@Leslie — well, in that case, at least the bird should be safe.
yeah, true — espec. judging from the recent exhibit of his *predator skillzzzz*…
(Winston, if you’re listening somehow, this is ALL IN FUN!! We still lubbz yor goofiness)
*nom nom nom nom*
*nom nom nom nom*

…oh, sorry… I was just eating the rest of the bananas. ^__^
Oh THANK YOU for taking away the thumbs. They were extremely distracting. I’d find myself looking at the thumbs instead of the comments….
yay

My colleagues think I’ve

No need to go to

Watch the autopsy.

One summer. I loved it.
Now, without thumbs, I
too, risk to ask, Is my name

I have no problem.

Fits haiku, as well!
Eyes full of horror,
Banana turns to his wife,
“This is bad. Let’s split!”

I saw that the surgeon looked

thx for cool drawing idea

@ Cindy:
Thanks!
“Examine the stem”
was a pretty weak finish.
Stumped, I just gave up.
What I really wanted
was to make a House haiku,
but that was too hard.
Maybe if I watched
less TV and read more books
I’d have less trouble.

It was self defense. Plot twist!
Fruit had it coming!
Banana bad guys?!

Guess we’ll never know
there are no bad birds
only person with sharpie
who is way twisted
Well, Santipryia
If your assumption’s right, you
Nullify this thread

Of glorious num-num food,
This is happiness.
Didn’t Hichcock show
Birds are inehently bad
Sans magic marker
In my movie plot
The banana was a cop
But a cop gone bad
You could say he split
From truth and from justice
A cereal con
The other two were
To be his next two victims
Polly saves the day
It just goes to show
Bad guys get their just desserts
Justice will prevail
(missed a ‘t’ there)
oops, missed a syllable….second stanza second line
*from THE truth and from justice
You are right, Cindy
It sounds so logical now
I stand corrected
I couldn’t resist
I have so much work to do
But this is more fun!
A banana, split,
a feast for the eyes and beak,
needs nuts and whipped cream.
were Hitchcock’s birds bad,
or did the people deserve
what they got, Svenster?
One of my coworkers had this as their desktop picture… for ages I was too far away to see the markings on the bananas, so I was kind of puzzled. hee.
Deserving that fate?!
Nommed to death by birdies, but
If it were kittehs…
Imagine that, Sant’
Lovely, deadly, pink cat-tounges
Fuzzy, purring end
Hahaha! Wonderful staging!
Also, what a beautiful ringneck!!
MORE PARROTS!
okay i agree
much better fuzzy kitties
but still no bad birds
My haiku skills are sad in comparison to many of yours, but you can’t get better unless you practice so here goes:
The ‘nanas are scared
The parakeet is hungry
Can’t we all be friends?
For those who didn’t understand what Jamie just wrote, I’ll try a quick translation:
Wonderful staging
Also beautiful ringneck
More parrots, I say
Why, this bird saved us!
From the evil alien
Inside ‘nanner gut!
I so wish you’re right
But how they can be good with
Freddy Krueger-feet?
Ringneck knows the call
