I think you should take another look. There’s 5, just like there’s supposed to be.
Maz-rim FUCK-ING Taim (5)
The Ho-ly Cal-cu-lat-or (7)
Child Pro-di-gy (4)
Fuel. XP
My poem is better anyway. ahem
Maz rocks! :D:D:D:D
…Thank you.
Do you guys do this with the sole intent to piss me off? Which half of Child did you ignore when you came to the conclusion that it was only one syllable? the “chy” or the “uld”? Or do you even know what a syllable is?
And your poem sucks shit. “Fuel.”
Actually, I’m gonna have to forgive you for not being around long enough to understand mine, otherwise you’d realise why it’s a hundred thousand times better than yours.
There are no halves, child is a one-syllable word. Like chilled. Only with a long I. Long I’s have one sound. Perhaps you’re confusing it’s dipthong with a syllable. Or something.
And my poem rocks with its simplicity. ;.;
A true haiku does not need to follow the 5/7/5 pattern, it needs only be three lines and to have a jump/change somewhere in it.
Well, according to every teacher I’ve ever had whose been asked by a student how many syllables child is (this happens quite frequently during poetry assignments), you’re uh… well, wrong.
And thanks for destroying my well-meaning thread for Maz with your assholery, Nessa. Someone close this.
Nessa or myself?
Nessa.
You’re never wrong, sweetie. hugs flint >>;
Ok. I’ll go ask all my English teachers tomorrow.
Sorry for being an asshole, I just wanted to help. 
“Ode to Mazrim Taim (Listing to FF7 battles)”
In the RPGC,
There is young man
of Whom you will see,
when he blows bubbles in a can.
Do not Anger when you see red,
he has a full length cloak of it.
Some people ask whats is in his head,
enough maps to make a hamster to fit!
Some peoole he is a Vertual boy,
When if fact,
He has a Verutual boy,
in his pack.
Big Nutter
By criticising my poem and telling me the one you shat out in 2 seconds was better? Just because you say you wanted to help doesn’t mean you did, and I can tell you didn’t.
I’ll stop now. No need to turn this into a soap opera.
Jeebus Christ Hades, calm down. I was just trying to show you what Pieface was talking about when he said your haiku was missing a syllable. And if you REALLY think I MEANT that my poem was better, upon SEEING the damn thing, you need some lessons in sarcasm/humor/something else. Sheesh.
In any case, I’m not going to argue with you, because I prefer improvisation to the same-old script of I’m right-you’re wrong. Try to be a little more open-minded, yeah? :kissy:
Order in the classroom children! Order in the classroom!
Heres my haiku.
Penis penis yay
I wish you belonged to Maz
So us two could play
totally ignores the flames and such
Happy Birthday, Maz ! =D
Edit : D’oh ! ><
That’ll teach me not to read through the thread. And not check the bottom of the main Agora page -_-;;
Yeah, I need lessons in sarcasm/humor, for serious. After years of pretending I don’t care when some ignorant fool insults me and going “>>;” or “:P” to pretend I’m not frustrated with them and letting it build up until I’m really not in the mood, releasing it is totally a sign that I need lessons in humor and sarcasm.
Just like if you killed my girlfriend and I killed killed you in return, that’d TOTALLY be a sign that I need anger management. For reals. Since it was so unprovoked and all.
(Just to clear things up, my point is that my response was merely the logical result of the buildup of some of the frustration people have caused me in the past. It has nothing to do with me being able to take a joke or understand sarcasm, because if you looked at my past responses to most of the bullshit I have to put up with, you’d see just how awesomely huge my ability to take a joke is.)
Why dont you play with mine, Shin?
Ooh, I see. I’m just the lucky winner. :moogle: I’m done here.
(/me <3 Maz)
I was hoping you’d ask me just what exactly those frustrating experiences were, but I guess I’m out of luck.
It gets boring after the first 1000 times =/
