俳句 : グロティウス v. マィかラヌ&#12483

[Grotius]

(Grotius bows to cantona2-先生.) Thank you for your 俳句, cantona2-さん.

In an earlier post, I described Q-Ball as a 先生 (teacher), and I was remiss in not extending that honorific to all posters mentioned there. I have, of course, learned from many writers who gather in this place. But, as will be evident shortly, my attack plan has probably been most influenced by the writings of Q-Ball-先生. My economic plan is most influenced by the writings of Mike Solli-先生. Of course, it is the Emperor's wisdom that inspires me above all.

[Q-Ball]

A small metal fish
Swims fast through the winter sea
Repulsing the whales.

[Canoerebel]

Allied ships sink
BBs by the dozen
Nah, Tokyo Rose

Methinks all the people of the world are brethren,
then why are the waves and the wind so unsettled nowadays?

The emperor wishes you well in your duties to the empire

A shadow appears
near Indianapolis
as clouds fill the sky.

[Chickenboy]

Pestilence, disease.
Which is worst in Pacific?
Victory Disease.

[Chickenboy]

Start training pilots
Petals of crysanthamum
Many will fall soon

[Chickenboy]

Fiery meteors
Blazing, plunging from heaven
Nates, Nates it's your Nates

[Canoerebel]

Chickenboy's skeeters
thrive when summer rains moisten
his Speedo that chaffes

[Grotius]

Floating samurai
chase the fleeing enemy
Through oily ocean.

[crsutton]

winter must descend
old men seek comfort from oil
look to palanbang
 

[Grotius]

Birds leave their steel nest
and search for the swimming hawk
but find only sea.

[Grotius]

Birds fly south to hunt,
finding only floating crumbs
and flying tigers.

[Canoerebel]

Green question mark
In middle of deep blue sea
What the heck is it?

[gladiatt]

Seek and destroy your foe now
for futur will come soon
and bring lot of despair

[Grotius]

* bows to his fellow sumurai and thanks them for their 俳句 *

Ambon fiasco
Means heads will roll, but for now
What next, samurai?

[d0mbo]

the question mark
stands for the allied CV
taskforce he sought for
