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?

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

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

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

  5. 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?

  6. 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.?"

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

  8. 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?

  9. 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?

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

  11. 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...
