Winter has arrived
The undeads are everywhere
Urist is watching

falling golden leaves
and they wither with the wind
crumbling in your path
(eh, plagiarism? NEVAAAAA)

[Talvieno]

I feel bad for Mitch.
His thread was popular, but
Made on the wrong board.

I would write haiku
To show off my epic skills
But I'm too humble.

I will fool myself
Thinking that I'm the wiser
When I'm really not.

Sometimes it is fun
To make a fool of myself
When I'm half asleep.

I regret to say
That as of this moment, I
Am fully awake.

I have no excuse
As to why I'm being dumb
I have no regrets

Then there is the fact
That I have missed the point of
This entire thread

*Talvieno stops
Writing haiku stories and
Magmas his fortress*

[Em3rgency]

Story must be told
Dwarf haiku is awesome... est
Wanted to make thread

Reason overtakes
The search button I must use
Find a proper place

Join my folly please
Write some dwarvenly haiku
Thread I must necro

My fluttering heart skips a beat

Five and eight is wrong
And at the end only four
Google haiku please :p

A major battle
Dragon and zombies and more
The fort must prevail!

Seriously, how does one write a haiku?

Haikus are japanese poems. Being japanese, they're different than your average run of the mill poems. For one, they follow a 5-7-5 syllable pattern. They also don't have to rhyme at all. So you write 3 lines. First line has to have 5 syllables, the second 7 and then 5 again. Its rather fun to try to get your story/point across in just 3 lines and 17 syllables.

Adamantium
You would think it is strongest
But nothing beats sock

Let me tell you a little story called 'The Origin of Google':

Once upon a time there was Google. Now you go Google. Get potato.

[Talvieno]

This thread wasn't first
I remember 'cause I'm old
Hello again, thread.

Oh I'm sorry man
I searched for it for not
Screwed the rules

[Em3rgency]

Stop derailing thread
About dwarf fortress it is
Urist is angry

[DG]

Tell me about the
Surrounding area please
The Grand Skunk is here

[pisskop]

it looks sinister
on a bright day fog rolls in
it bleeds the heart.

the stream is pointed
it menaces with pools of
murk water and blood

the slopes are raw
the graves of dead long past
corporeal ghosts

The plants are angry
they bite the unclad flesh
bonerot and jelly

the ores they'll stink
Rotten eggs and bloated sin
Armoks temple play-te

The whisker is thin
its root hollow and heavy
mere death not the end
