Haiku Contest

[Kung Wu]

Hey let's have a Haiku contest ... the theme? Wichita State Men's Basketball of course!

What's a Haiku? In its simple form, it's a short poem with only three lines. The first line has five syllables, the second line has seven syllables, and the third line has five syllables.

Here are my suggested rules (of course there aren't really any):

1) Must relate in some way to WSU Men's Basketball (or basketball in general)
2) These can be funny, serious, or anything in between!
3) One haiku per post (makes it easier to comment/track them)
4) Post as many as you like
5) Titles are allowed (and recommended)

Here is an example (a terrible example, but just something to show what they look like):

basketball season
fun to watch them rebuilding
can't wait for next year

Reminder:

5 syllables
7 syllables
5 syllables

Maybe when this has run its course (probably already has :cry: ) we can have a poll for which ones are the best.

Shox play basketball
Under my expectations
I am still a fan

[shockrah]

That ShockerFever
really likes the number four.
No four in Haiku!

[Aargh]

Marshall sees tough times
Recruits two seven-footers
Has to wait for one

[RoyalShock]

Winless in Valley
Shockers show no signs of quit
Victories await

[Triticum]

Leading at halftime
Complacency rears its head
Two halves make a whole

[Triticum]

New starting lineup
Will it be a wake up call?
Hatch plays like Rudy

[Triticum]

After my question
I will hang up and listen
When will the Shocks win?

[Anthroshock]

After my question
I will hang up and listen
When will the Shocks win?

Just kidding of course. Go Shox!!

The syllable business may prove to be a challenge to some of the posters.

I can coach better
Even though it's not my job
Hang up and listen
