Dwarf Fortress Haiku
« on: November 30, 2012, 01:17:55 pm »

The dwarf hunts the moose.
What a terrible mistake.
Enjoy your coffin.

The journey begins.
Demigod hammer fighter.
Killed by a gopher.

This is a side-effect of dwarven animal training (hit animal with hammer until it forgets that it hates you, then lovingly cuddle it).

I'm not your average Bay12er. I care about my drunken midgets.

The Dwarf digs candy
Careful, !!!FUN!! lies below it
Dug to deep, respawn?

Gobby siege, have no traps?
No weapons or armor now?
God be merciful.

I really suck at this
Why can I not stop right now?
My eternal shame.

...You're arguing with the GM? Why don't you argue with Jesus about how much Peter liked clams?
Because each player's delicious tears are fuel for the continued torture that is the Warrens of Oric the Awesome.

I've seen this before
Or, at least another thread
Based around haikus.

Should I put the link?
I am really not too sure.
I will anyway.

'Twas a while ago,
But it still makes a good read
Like all Dorf Fort stuff.


As long as I'm here,
Spearbreakers has haiku, too
If you want to dig.

Murdered has just two,
Beats the juxtaposition,
I know haiku-fu.

In old-school english
Some words such as murdered
Have three syllables

Urist McFisher
Went to the stream for some carp
Urist has been struck down

The Bronze Collosus
Mightiest of all the foes
Killed by a wambler

A prosperous fort
Eaten by trolls, I care not
For losing is fun

Urist McNoble
Demands gold mini-forges
I pull the lever

I like to think that on the other side of the world a human is walking on the beach, notices the water level suddenly drop twenty feet, and whispers "fucking dwarves."

"The cows seem to lose bowel control when launched... I consider this a feature."

The thread is win;
Rising to heights
containing all

Dwarves tunnel in
Dig the deep blue..
Endless blood

Yet still some think
that these are not Haiku.
Syllable/mora

It would be brutally difficult and probably won't work. In other words, it's absolutely dwarven!

Hey I'm a Dwarf and
I'm digging a hole, diggy
diggy hole, diggy

Why did you bring that up
That Honeydew from the Yogscast drinks Jaffa's with a cup
You are a horrible person
I'm eating a raw morsel
Haiku is rocket science
I'm just going to sit in silence
