Haikuesday for Pa

Does anyone miss -- or even remember -- Haikuesday?


Like wheat in the fall,
Pa's cut down, leaving behind
a boy and his dog.


Care to try one yourself?

Poor Pa Kent is dead,
Victim of an attempt to
Imitate "Smallville".

What? He's dead again?
A poor fate for a good man.
Donner has issues.

I wrote a great one
Full of sadness, pain, and heart.
Then Blogger went down.

Morrison did it*.
He did it and made me cry.
Man, I love Krypto.



*In All-Star Superman # 6, so (I'm pretty positive) its not part of regular continuity. Am I wrong about that?

All-Star is not part of continuity, no. IN fact, All-Star is the very opposite of continuity, though many no doubt feel (like myself), than that is in some ways a bad thing.


Here's mine:

Y'know, all of this,
And we will still never know:
Just "Who was J. Lo.?"

Morrison did it?
I guess I was mistaken.
Sorry, Sir Donner.

Bully said...

Ah, I finally remembered what I wanted to write but lost when Blogger went offline:

I bet Kal's thinking
Does no one mow the lawn here
In Smallville Graveyard?

Hmmm #1

Two dead dads. Hmmm. It's
Looking less like bad luck now,
More like carelessness.


Hmmm #2

Hmmm. If Earth had gone
Ka-boom first, would Batman have
A Kansasite ring?

"Seriously, dude.
Yo Superman! Stop moping,
and get my dinner."

1)
Should be sad right now...
Krypto has a better cape
For that: dog must die.

2)
With my heat vision
I should have carved a better
gravestone. More ornate?

3)
Can't believe Pa's dead!
He taught me so much of life.
Krypto sniffed my crotch.

Yea verily I hath missed Haikuesday...
