Hai-Kuul – July 07, 2005

It’s great when I get a new requestor that is much more gifted at writing these than I am. Thanks for the submission, James! You are the first entry. Let the fun begin…


Doomed Love On a Timer (Requested by Enraptured4)
Why must you leave me?
It feels like it just began
Time is running out


Keith Richards (Requested by Ian)
Age personified
This rocker was a model
For Captain Sparrow


Fresca (Requested by Ian)
Very refreshing
Like a lemon waterfall
Cascading inwards


Body Suits (Requested by Ian)
These odd devices
Help superheroes exist
Good or bad? Who knows?


International Intrigue (Requested by Ian)
To survive this world
Employ charm and stealth with flair
You could go quite far


Bossa Nova (Requested by Ian)
It touches your soul
They rhythm like a lover
Primally refined


Vodka Sauce (Requested by Ian)
Dancing With the Stars

Takes a toll on Ian’s brain
He has lost his mind

😉

Socks and Sandals (Requested by Courtney8292)
I’ve seen this before
Fashion travesty but that’s
Just my opinion


Bug Flew Up My Nose (Requested by Courtney8292)
It came from nowhere
And found a home in my nose
What a gross feeling


T-Shirt Tan (Requested by Courtney8292)
Spending time outside
Entails many risks. None as
Funny as this, though


The Ocean (Requested by ScubaDiana)
It moves with the Earth
And holds life beyond measure
We’ve so much to find


Scuba Diving (Requested by ScubaDiana)
It’s the best method
Of becoming one with our
Bountiful oceans

We Are the Champions (Requested by Drea)
When you play to win
Something happens inside you
It is called desire


Rockin’ it Canada Style (Requested by Drea)
Grab the sled dogs, ma
It’s time to leave our igloos
And get right plastered


Fireworks On This Day (Requested by Drea)
Bright pyrotechnics
Will light up the dark night sky
Like birthday candles


Independent Americans (Requested by Drea)
Independence Day
Grab your flags and wave them high
Celebrate freedom


Plums (Requested by Drea)
A delicate fruit
Be careful when you store it
In a full backpack


Ethiopia (Requested by Drea)
Hope fears to tread here
Everyone’s eyes show needing
Starvation rules all


Live 8 Concert (Requested by Drea)
A great idea
Implemented the wrong way
Live 8: A dead end


Bush Sucks My Tush (Requested by Drea)
President my ass
More like a guy with his own
Hidden agenda


When In Doubt (Requested by Drea)
You want the prizes
But you don’t know what to do
Always pick door 3

People are quite odd
I’m waiting for the day when
Eye piercings happen


-70 Degrees (Requested by Drea)
Don’t forget your coat
Staying warm is important
Banish the cold now!


Rain Go Away (Requested by Drea)
We’ve had so much rain
That I’m soaked right down to my
Very underwear


Skipped In Elevators (Requested by Drea)
I get puzzled looks
When I perform my workout
Travelling up lifts


Freckles and Burns (Requested by Drea)
I’m like a leopard
When I tan my freckles, though
Some spots are bright red


The Inner Door (Requested by Drea)
Will you let me in?
I’m here to meet with your soul
I’ve an appointment


Mercy Me has been requested already.


Black Locks (Requested by Drea)
Not very common
These secure devices rock!
Black Locks on white doors


Stork Report (Requested by Drea)
So many babies
Seem to be finding their way
Under my friends’ abs

Don’t mess with the best
He’s the man with the best plan:
Eat rigatoni


The Hammer (Requested by Drea)
You hear it ring out
As the blacksmith forms his blades
Blunt tool that sharpens

Yankee-Doodles (Requested by princess_castle)
You’d think that one guy
With a feather was enough
Now she asks for two


Play Games (Requested by princess_castle)
Some folks are cruel
They string along their lovers
Like some fish for trout

An insensitive jerk but
Your breath smells like ass

What Are U Looking For? (Requested by princess_castle)
I see you look down
Your eyes speak of frantic fear
Did your contacts fall?

Is better understood when
It’s fried in butter


Mimosa Pudica (Requested by princess_castle)
Medicinal plant
Moderate diuretic
But causes baldness


Yuck!! I Am Not Eating One of Those!! (Requested by princess_castle)
Is this fear factor?
Because I make it a rule
Not to eat bull’s balls


Yawn ‘n Lawn (Requested by princess_castle)
The best days are spent
Reading a book on the grass
And taking a nap


Awww…Baby!!! (Requested by princess_castle)

To receive flowers

Being Gollum and owning
A mangy Collie

Layers of events
Repetitive déja vu
Reruns of reruns


Raise the Bar? What Bar??? (Requested by princess_castle)
I’ve achieved it all
There is no one above me
I rule the planet


Pat Him On the Back (Requested by princess_castle)
For a job well done
A reward is a great thing
It makes people glad


Give Me a Break (Requested by princess_castle)
That’s a lame excuse
Your dog ate your homework, eh?
Time for detention

Provided they use proper
Words and some grammar

Contest!

Hai-Kuultest – Part Three

The 500th haiku came and went like a bat out of hell. It is time for another contest to celebrate the milestone. I was supposed to wait for Drea to indicate what the next photo was to be, but she thought it would be better to ignore that and request another ten million poems.

The contest will be similar to the last one. Check out the rules below.


Starting today, at 13:00 EST, I will be taking requests for Hai-Kuul. The 40th request wins. The rules are as follows..

  • The request must be made in the Hai-Kuul post on the sidebar as a comment. Any other Hai-Kuul request will not be counted as an entry, but I will create a Haiku for it regardless.
  • You cannot submit more than one request at a time. Thus five requests in the same comment only count as one entry.
  • You cannot submit more than one comment in a row at a time. Thus, if you were to submit two comments in a row, it would only count as one entry.
  • The Request must be original. No duplicates (which means you have to read the other ones). Duplicate requests will be deleted.
  • No members of my family are eligible for this. Any request from my family will be ignored (I will still write a haiku for the request though).
  • As of August 09, 2005, any request containing over ten topics in length will be deleted, and will thus not count as an entry.
  • The winner of the last contest cannot win this time. However, that person may contribute suggestions, and their entries will count towards the 40 entries. Should this person submit the 40th entry, the 41st will be the winner.
  • To receive the prize (there is only one), you must be able to provide me with a mailing address.


The prize for the 40th requestor will be an 8×10 glossy limited print (4/100) of a Moonlit Night in Algonquin Park (on 8.5×11 Canon Professional Photo Paper).

The 500th Haiku has already occurred due to the fact that Drea is a request-o-matic. She wins a 4×6 of the photo…



Good luck!

UPDATE (Aug 15, 2005): This contest is now closed.
