Conspiracy Haiku - Winners Announced!

Democracy died
On September eleventh
The road ahead bleak

My visions are plagued
They are not of this planet
No one believes me

Cool.

Conspiracy:

Do you see it all?
The open-minded skeptic
Sees within and through


Ignorance:

Choosing not to know
He turns his back; he seeks not
A shroud covers him

One for ignorance:

I speak for myself
A different path opens
Unchanged I remain

Is places one syllable or two? when I pronounce it it comes out play-cess but when I spell it it sounds like one.

Stupid english language!

Love and light,

Wupy

It is two - don't look at the word - 'hear' it. Sorry for the 'new-agey' sounding 'feel the words, hear them' speech, but seriously it is two.


Pla-ces

You're right, 2. Stupid language? Not really, it's damn difficult though. We have to take it every year through school. In Canada French(other official lang.) is optional. Though after learning English it makes learning any other language difficult.

Ok, OK....it's time for me to take a short break. I can't believe i just wrote this. It IS NOT one that is officially entered.

Grab the shotgun ma
The new world order’s coming
There’s bankers to shoot


yeppers, yeppers, when you start putting out Haiku like that it's time to go take a shower and clear the old noggin'

Man, those were horrible. They border on the Vogonic!

I can see no one has corrected me yet. *waits patiently*

Why would we? You took the time to create, no one should diss that.

Ok, in the second haiku you posted the second line has eight syllables. I sure hope you submit that one to the judges.

even bad haiku can beat good haiku if the good haiku has too many syllables

edited to add: So far i've got a dozen written. My plan is to write maybe eight more and on thursday night I will choose my favorite two and submit them. I'll also submit the rest in a seperate post so everyone can enjoy the hell of my writing

Ill give it a shot.
Conspiracy

The Prophet Yahweh
Can summon the UFOs?
We were decieved, Hoax!

Ignorance

Uneducated,
unaware and uninformed
They are the masses.

Well there they are

My own contributions to this exercise:

the Truth is ugly
in shadows of Ignorance
wash it in the light

and #2

the sky is falling
build a shelter run and hide
spoke the aussie bloke

Hey I've read worse -- in fact I've written worse They certainly don't border on the third worst poetry in the universe.

Now my entry could qualify

Knowledge conquers all
Ignorance is bliss to some
We must win the fight

Here's my effort I hope it's right

The Future is ours
Search Wisdom Embrace Knowledge
Mother is always right.

Somebody please tell me if I got it wrong with the 5-7-5 syllables.

Great idea I like it. Gets the brain to think.

Oh great why didn't I read the theme

Right I'll be back with another and it will be super dooper

Youz lot could of told me thanks guys

(1)
Those who know, debate:
Should we tell them what we know?
They would all panic.

(2)
They don't want to know.
Their eyes, ears, and minds are closed.
They just walk away.

Just a comment. I think it’s terribly nifty that MrDog is followed by Amiga_de_los_Gatos.

My first one. I have more wrote but am waiting to see if a better one comes to mind.

Truth is only an
interpretation of fact
Believe what you will

conspirators are
A.T.S. posers posting
deny ignorance

Denial of Troll
cheese rollers of older molds
cut cold lines for stones

(and my non conspiratorial one, just for kicks, about my love for mountain dew, which i was buzzing off of when i wrote those other two crappy ones).

sweet stream of sugar
a soothing green elixir
liquid energy
