Teflon Billy's post-ENnie Haiku Contest. WIN TONS OF D20 STUFF

[KDLadage]

Now this is a FANATSTIC haiku.

It has wit, it places the 'twist' at the end... both essential for good haiku.

If I were judging, this would win. (So far anyway...)

Although I should dock him points for d20 compatibility.

I thank you kindly.
These are words that touch my heart;
appreciated.

But still, I must ask
why you feel the need to dock
when I am so right?

Page eighty, bottom
It states Combat Reflexes
Gives more AoA's

But alas! I see!
"Round," not "turn," is the right way
to express this now!

 

[CRGreathouse]

These are my favorites:

The sounds of rapture
A sea of tears shed in joy
The Half-Orc bard dies

Opportunity:
without combat reflexes,
knocks but once per turn

Frets drip blood on snow
Critic said Half-orc bards suck.
Now My lute's in tune.

*****

Crazy warlock casts.
Fiendish dire bovine appears.
"Unholy cow!" I shout.

Nice, but the last line's too long.

This is a great troll
I bet there are no prizes
Billy got us good

Variation on a theme

My entry:

Monte said it best:
The adventure begins with
an orc and a pie.

And later more:

Book of Vile Darkness
Monte Cook's at it again.
When's Eldritch Might Three?

Up on a Soapbox:
When Gary Gygax writes we
still listen and learn.

And to stay topical:

Avalanche Press erred;
mistaken identity.
Good Morrus forgives.

 

[Maerdwyn]

consolidated this with my other post earlier in the thread

 

[Kae'Yoss]

although i am strong
i don't rule the world cause of
my thoughts in chaos.

(I am in great shame
I have a terrible flaw:
I just cannot rhyme)

 

[Walker N. Waistz]

Lament of a Half-Orc Bard

Breathing winter's mist
My daughter's height imposes
Youth's summer is gone

I too must bow. The perfection of that haiku cannot be contested.

what the heck?

Here's my "half-orc bard" entry into the contest:

Skull drums resonate
Half-orc sorrow vents in waves
No more foes to kill

 

[Sejs]

Haiku: Fireball.

I shall smite my foes.
Arcane flames dance at my call!
Damn, he made his save.

 

[Devon]

Here is my haiku for submission:

"Can my first-level
Psion take teleport? No?
Damn third edition!"

Here are some other ones, for giggles:

Unconscious player!
Don't tell your friends what to do --
Your voice has been stilled.

Yay! Third edition!
Those AD&D munchkins
Need time to catch up.



Thank you!
