Erisian Haiku Contest: The voting begins…!
By Psyche | May 24, 2008
This weekend vote for your top two favourite Erisian Haiku poets on Plutonica.net.
The entries received are below, and the voting buttons are on the right side bar. Vote for your favourite poet by name by whatever criteria strikes your fancy (Eris is a goddess of chaos after all).
Voting will continue all weekend, with the winner to be announced on Monday morning.
Below are the entries, alphabetical by first name:
angelofelvis
things fall apart
(no hot dog buns)
make me smile
(dwarf planet my ass)
can’t wait what’s next
the sound of screaming
grains of sand scratch kootch
bleeding toe broken
forever nothing
caldera blows east
brandon in japan
5 Disconnected Haiku Connect for Eris
A hounded beetle
Dashes madly for the wall
Almost, almost, al
Between the cushions
Of my couch, someone’s wallet…
Who is Edmund Burke?
A fastidious hound
Carefully choosing the spot
Pisses on roses
As the priestess sits
In tranquil meditation
A dog licks her face
Nothing but silence,
When I finally realize
What a fool I’ve been.
Dan
Golden silk hair flows,
the laughter of true madness.
Why does it rain trout?
Eris kissed my nose.
The rapture was unending.
Now I wear Straight-Jackets.
No Cabbages Found.
It’s already St Tibbs Day!
Hail Discordia!
The Hodge turns on Podge.
Take that thermodynamics!
St Gulik be Praised!
Nuts to all stress says,
Parable of Bitter Tea.
Let’s go play some Sink!
Eyeago
*A DISCORDIAN DEATH-EPIC HAIKU IN FIVE CHAPTERS*
King Kong died for You:
Ingrate domestic primate.
Banana peel death.
Five finger discount
Dun dun dun Dunnnnn, badum pshhh
Gobble gobble hey.
A Fnordian Slip
Aneristic nay-sayer
Hey: pull my finger
I lay, my deathbed
Eris descends, glorious
She farts on my face.
Discombobulate
Five tons of flax I become,
No longer a pope.
Gesigewigus
Eris demands praise
But what praise can be offered to the mistress of chaos aside from haikus bent out of shape?
Apples, wars and popes
John L. Crow
A Golden Apple?
For The Fairest? Its all mine
So Fuck Off!
Malcom10
What a fool I’ve been
But from there comes my fortune
Always just in time
Take it at the truth
Not all who wonder are lost
Or not, as you will
All statements are true
They are also meaningless
And false to be sure
Mechangel
Hot dogs, sans the buns.
Her love is the squishiest.
No room for bread.
MU is the answer.
Or is it the question, you ask?
Either way, your dinner speaks.

World in transition,
Dispersive data sources,
Content hard to find.

Eat My Shorts!
Follow Blindly With Vim!
