Traditional Knife Haiku

[Pinemoon]

What was that, Pinemoon?
You mean, you're not one of us?
Try one, you'll like it!

On the list it goes
I will trust my knife-nut friends
No money for food

On the list it goes
I will trust my knife-nut friends
No money for food

food clouds the judgement
waste nothing on sustenance
live high on the lamb

 

[Pinemoon]

food clouds the judgement
waste nothing on sustenance
live high on the lamb

Awe Man, Bravo!
Well done; your words fall like plum blossoms!

 

[Fodderwing]

Awe Man, Bravo!
Well done; your words fall like fine plum blossoms!

Thanks! Blind hog syndrome.

food clouds the judgement

I like that, Dwight. All lower case and no punctuation. A declarative sentence and two imperatives. And the right spelling of "judgement"! [Before anyone corrects me, I just like that spelling, regardless of what any dictionary might say.]

 

[Fodderwing]

Thanks my friend. After reading that, I am impressed with myself.

You all have some real talent for this poetry stuff.
I can't get past, "There once was a man from Nantucket..."

... with a knife that he kept in his pocket
while whipping it out
he started to shout,
come see me walk it and talk it!

... with a knife that he kept in his pocket

OUTSTANDING

Couldn't resist the hidden challenge there

Oh you answered the challenge with an authoritative slam dunk... however... the "haiku" police will be here any minute... so ... mums the word...

 

[veitsi_poika]

My knives talk to me,
this one is quite persuasive...
hand me the Charmin

 

[Fodderwing]

My knives talk to me,
this one is quite persuasive...
hand me the Charmin

restitution has been made.
excuse me... I gotta go see a man about a dog....

much more better-er

 

[Shurke]

so what if I have
only nine fingers to spare
give me a sharp knife

Should we start a limerick thread?

I'm sure a lot rhymes with lambsfoot!

 

[Prester John]

I'm sure a lot rhymes with lambsfoot!

Well, that could go at the beginning or middle of a line....

And of course, the thread doesn't need to be limited to lambsfoots!

 

[Pinemoon]

Well, that could go at the beginning or middle of a line....

And of course, the thread doesn't need to be limited to lambsfoots!

...or is it lambsfeet?
Haha!

Loving your haikus folks Dwight, that is outstanding
