The Haiku Thread

[Jay2U]

Fall brings gravity
Leaves are falling from the trees
It's all Newton's fault

 

[elgecko]

I wanted to ride
Clouds looming, the streets are wet
Guess I'll watch TV

 

[elgecko]

We've done three and four

We've even done a five word thread

Now, time for haiku

The first post is flawed
One too many syllables
What was I thinking

 

[elgecko]

Drinking my coffee
Listening to Jackson Browne
Go well together

 

[Jay2U]

Drinking my coffee
Listening to Jackson Browne
Go well together

Drinking a large beer
List'ning to Motörhead songs
Goes well together

 

[5StringBlues]

What, you burned my stash?
That was going to last all day!
Ate my Cheetos too!

 

[fdeck]

There once was a man
who came from a faraway
place called Nantucket

 

[Jay2U]

Bought new strings today
Put them on the bass tonight
Tomorrow I'll play

 

[Hot Rats]

Temperature Falls
I'm looking for my sweatshirt
Squish the tomato

 

[BassyBill]

This thread’s back again
You thought it was all over
But now, it is not

 

[5StringBlues]

Bassy Bill is back

He was gone for a long time

Glad he is better

 

[Tom Bomb]

A zombie, threadlike

haiku do do the time warp

gladness takes its toll
​

 

[Volker Kirstein]

Meaningless nonsense
Filling the endless chasm
Emptiness remains

 

[Tom Bomb]

For the coming storm

auntie dons an extra coat

it's cold outside-ways
​

 

[BassyBill]

Bassy Bill is back

He was gone for a long time

Glad he is better

Could not walk or see
So could not TalkBass either
But healing now - thanks!

AFTER A MORNING OF LISTENING TO JOHNNY CASH
(2013)

If I’da shot her
Back when I first wanted to
I’d be out by now

 

[Tom Bomb]

The drum and the bass

reopening cold cases,

two stitches in rhyme
​

 

[Tom Bomb]

We belong, chanson

where it's all going so wrong

- still masking the pong

​

​

 

[Tom Bomb]

Order in the house —

should mess things up a little

chaos is so now
​

 

[5StringBlues]

What choo talkin' 'bout

Willis? Up your nose with a

rubber hose. Fonzie!
