I've been out of town, and otherwise preoccupied on Mon/Tues., so we've really got some catching up to do. Mea culpa! Feel free to take your time and respond to these in multiple comments - I know it's a lot to deal with all at once.

National Poetry Month Prompt #13

Go here and look up your name (in the "Search Name" box). Write a haiku that is inspired by your name's meaning.


Prompt #14 & #15

Write a double haiku (two sets of seventeen syllables, 5/7/5 5/7/5) that explains whether you are more introverted or extraverted.


Prompt #16

Write a haiku that includes either the word "rhinoceros" or the word "triceratops." Bonus points if you can work them both into a haiku that makes sense.


Prompt #17

In haiku form, respond to the Virginia Tech tragedy.


Prompt #18

Are you sick of writing haiku yet? Tell the world about it! Bonus points if you ditch the haiku form and write a limerick instead.

National Poetry Month Haiku-a-Thon Prompt #12

Write a haiku about something you forgot, and then remembered (either too late, or just in time)


Wednesday, April 11, 2007

National Poetry Month Haiku-a-Thon Prompt #11

Write a haiku about an elf.

National Poetry Month Haiku-a-Thom prompt #10:

"Look," the First Officer said, "I honestly don't care. It may eventually help your case that you're madly in love with the Lieutenant - although, for the life of me, I can't see how - but for now it's totally irrelevant. I mean seriously. What could have possible possessed you to change the navigation settings? The shuttle is completely off-course, and who knows what kind of conditions they'll encounter when they land who-knows-where on that planet. Do you even understand what you've done? What do you have to say for yourself?"

You are an friendly alien lifeform and a passenger on the spaceship. Your species speaks English, but only in phrases of seventeen syllables in a 5/7/5 "haiku" format. What is your response to the First Officer?
