And Deer, yours is just fantastic!!! Puts me in mind of The Masochism Tango by Tom Lehrer.

Love it!

Amazing work all you great writers .. I'm still struggling with the write something in 2 mins challenge .. you guys are all very good

Boy oh boy oh boy. What a tough decision I must make now, only two weeks late. Sorry about that, btw, I really am. Things got ahead of me, and time flies, and all that.

I have to name...DEER as the winner. Because, she took us on a journey that was just...amazing. I thought it was a cold and distant lover, and then, it turns out to be a cold and DEAD lover! I was just....left so unclean...in such an amazing way.

Linna and Gamgee...hold your heads high. I almost pulled a name out of a hat because I couldn't decide. Linna's was everything I ever wanted, and more, I could so picture an old-fashioned television music concert video while reading. And while Gamgee's first entry...I'll just say I'm too unintelligenter to be pre-familiarized with Go, Lovely Rose, but I thought Go Tumbleweed was solid....it was the Tinder bit that really, really got me rolling.

Great, great stuff guys. Gold, silver, bronze all around, let's shake a bottle and spray some champagne up in here!

Congratulations, Deer! Well deserved!

Congrats, Deer, and good work from all!

Yay!! Thanks so much. I have to say that Gamgee and Linna both brought brilliance to the table, so the win means a lot. Great entries!!!

Just the effect I was going for. (I guess Corrupt a Wish doesn't have exclusive claim on wickedness. )

Sorry it took me so long to respond... I've been great at not paying attention to anything lately. I'll have a new challenge up as soon as I can wrap my mind around it. I'm thinking of a Bad Haiku challenge....

Ok people, Bad Haiku it is. Seventeen syllables of badness. Go.

Hokey Pokey is
Turn yourself around, but don't
Very confusing.

or...

Syllables of five
Syllables of seven; let's
Just have each one six.

or...

Tree without a leaf.
Just an empty coat rack grown.
Hang coat in the yard.

(I find haiku hard
Iamb more comfortable
when I write, averse.)

I see what you did there.

#1
See myself inward
Others they see me dim
raise the glow light high

#2
A friendship given
glad hearts are beating so hard
soft warm embraces

#3
Watch haiku posts here
strange or bad we are writing
win deer's dollars now!

As a haiku fan
And dabbler in that form
I will watch this space

In The Haiku Game
I just wrote badly, using
A Neil Diamond song

#4
Haiku! I sneeze loud
the tissues offered kindly
softly wipes my nose

#5
Mankind hungers much
after haiku poems here
fill them up poets

#6
The haiku poem
strange pacing brings us poem
that now ends poem

Haiku sounds sublime
Haiku leaves the poetry numb
Haiku strangely rocks

In Haiku some win
Deer will pick the favourite
Worst written art form




I may have no clue
But will keep trying my hand
At this strange art form

Poop stink poop stink fart
Fart stink fart stink fart stink poop
A burp is mouth fart

Over purple rain,
This is what it sounds like when
Doves cry, a high coo.

#7
I must win haiku!
Or I will weep forever!
And rejoice never!

#8
On and on I go
never ending my prattle
but the end is now

#9
Peace very nearby
rejoice to hear that sounding
peace forever more

Joe Theismann will win.
No one can forget his play.
Flea-Flicker: Hike! Ew!

Hi Koo Hi Koo you,
Irritatingly brilliant,
You cause me to moo

A fat cow may am,
I moo, I moo, at you maam
For high koos my jam

I sing and shout out
My moo, my high koo is true
But no one can hear

Here you go, Skyweir:

Eine Kuh, so wie du!
