(Ugh I refreshed on accident so I have to write this all over again.)
So I have a bull**** creative writing portion of a research project due on Monday. I had to choose from writing a play or writing a letter to myself a million years in the future or some crap, and I picked the easiest one to push off onto you guys: write a male reproductive organload of haikus.
I’m doing this since I wasted all of today playing D2, and tomorrow I have work and a bunch of other **** to do that will take up the whole day. Plus I really just don’t feel like doing it anyway.
Anyways here’s what YOU have to do. Submit some haikus of my topic (as many as you want, the more the better chance you’ll have at BP) before MARCH 2ND (2009) a few hours in (say 4) is alright, since I’ll probably still be up.
The haikus already have a set topic: Graffiti, graffiti as art, etc. So they have to be about that to even qualify. Make these heartfelt and good quality please, it’s what I need.
The best submitters will get BP, 5BP total, based on what I think are the best ones for what I need.
Also no trollan this is srs.
    EDIT: Haikus are 3 lines, 5-7-5 syllables long, example: Johnny Mac edited this message on 03/01/2009 3:23AM |

Spray Can, boring wall Only to be washed away Back to the boring

Dripping down the drain. Is it only the spray paint? Tax payers money.

Pen and cubicle. Take away the crisp fresh paint. Write obscenities.

Won’t the teacher realize that your haikus don’t sound like your writing style, or perform a simple Google search and discover their source, or in some other way realize that you didn’t actually do the bumignment?

Remember the syllable requirements; your first and last poems didn’t fit 5-7-5.
My own entry:

Clean wall, new start, New Graffiti, chill time, Awesomeness. – Urban People, Paint the graffities, Hungry for freedom. – The Wall is boring, Let me decorate it, Enlighten the world. – Lets go for the hunt, Graffitify the city, Lets feel it again. – I finish the sketch, Look at it once again, It’s spraying time. – A splash of colour; Sudden reprieve from the pall – Writings on the wall. – Making notations quite stylish but hard to read, some are degrading.
Ok, 7 haiku’s, hope lucky number seven will help me out Log in to see images! Xc0m edited this message on 03/01/2009 4:15AM |

The canvas prevails Though the brushstrokes have weathered Is the message lost?
—
Fleeting ownership Of a wall nobody wants And a sense of place
—
All the old masters Were once considered vandals. I await my time
—
It doesn’t matter If the words are legible; Just that they are there
—
The urban jungle Sometimes needs its own roadmap Writing points the way
—
We enter battle With our swords and spears held high; See our war of words
—
On a cold evening An artist is walking away From a masterpiece
—
Message for no-one Laid out for the world to see No return address
—
We watch but don’t see They come and go in the night City ghost writers
—
Rooftop acrobat With a spray can in his hand Takes over the town
—
Art must be lawless But when it creeps across walls Should the rules apply?
—
Bricks soak up anger And the senselessness of life In the big city
—
His heart on the wall His spray can in his pocket And he vanishes
—
An open letter To the lonely citizens says “I was here too”
—

Nope, still off. Current syllable counts:
First poem: 5-7-7 (also, “conformed” is used wrong) Second poem: 5-7-5 (good, although “payers” should have an apostrophe at the end) Third poem: 5-7-7
The first and third poems are still not haikus. As a math-loving nerd, I am frustrated by people’s failure to count.
Also, why do most of the entries seem to romanticize graffiti? Sure, there are some good street artists out there, but most graffiti is tags and vandalism on walls owned by people who don’t want graffiti there. Even if it could be considered art, lots of people don’t want art all over their walls. |

Against bricks stenciled doves dart, swoop, swarm around the sloppy red gang signs

flowers only grow on the dusty walls of Shibam atleast they don’t wilt

the wall tells me that Dwayne was here, no mention of where he might be now
