    Default Haiku Relating Stephen King

    I always thought Haikus were great - saying as much as possible in very few words. One of my favorite Haiku ever sums it up:
    "The only problem
    With Haiku is the you just
    Get Started and Then..."

    And now, if you like, I'd want to hear your King-related-Haiku which can be funny, sad or inspiring - whatever works for you. They need to be 5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 syllable, and it is also common to put nature-related description, although, to quote Grease (yes. I am a girl): "The rules are, they're ain't no rules", so just go with whatever feels right.

    I'll start off:

    I went to Derry
    The circus was in town but
    Some clowns have big teeth

    And another one:

    Night. Wind is blowing.
    Sometime even Gunslingers
    Doubt the Dark Tower

    Pleeeeeeease join in. Don't let me sit here all by myself, speaking to no one...

    I love haiku, too. It'll be at least the two of us sitting here looking sheepish.

    monsters stalk the mist
    and wake different monsters
    in their human prey

    and obliquely,

    the windmill turns, creaks
    speaks of a world moved on
    and those left behind

    I love the son, Jake.
    I cannot take him with me.
    Not this time around.

    The end of the world.
    A plague upon all houses.
    The few left behind.

    In reference to SK himself:
    A common man, he
    His words find the truest mark
    To us, he gives gifts

    And for Sai King's latest masterpice, UtD:
    The dome made them choose
    To be blind or see the truth
    Those who listened lived
