My name is Sokka
I come to bring you a game
I'll teach you to play

First in five, then seven
Syllables make up the poem [pronounced 'pome' so it's only one syllable.]
three lines at a time

Don't break the pattern
or you'll miss your chance to win
the title of the best

The object is to
speak in meter until you
run out of words - Go!

[There is a long history of haiku in Issei's home nation of Japan... but he doesn't feel like looking any up right now and I can't find any that translate right. So he picks something more recent.]

I see you driving
'Round town with the girl I love
And I'm like: haiku.

[Audio] lovedthemoon May 20 2011, 09:37:33 UTC

Is that from a song?
I think I heard it on Earth
on my last visit

[Audio] stripping May 20 2011, 14:03:04 UTC

It is from a song!
I enjoy reading haiku
But I don't write them

That is surprising,
Cause you're doing good so far.
Don't give up, okay?

OH OH! Okay!

My name is Aang-Man
And I ride an fly Appa-man
And Momo can sing.

[ audio ] lovedthemoon May 20 2011, 09:46:49 UTC

I've never heard Momo
But I know you wouldn't lie
But can he really?

[ audio ] energybends May 20 2011, 16:43:45 UTC

Of course Momo sings
Sings lots of beautiful songs
All into the night

[ audio ] lovedthemoon May 20 2011, 17:09:57 UTC

Sometimes I stay up
And somehow I've never heard.
Are you sure it's him?

So I just talk to you and
put the next few words
on separate lines?

[Text] lovedthemoon May 20 2011, 09:48:57 UTC

You've missed my whole point
Count the syllables you make
Or you'll be sorry

[Text] quidditch_stag May 23 2011, 01:13:56 UTC

I really don't see why I should.
Don't even know your name.
What are you going to do?

[Text] lovedthemoon May 23 2011, 15:19:56 UTC

I said my name in the post, and if you weren't going to play why did you reply?

roseandsparkle May 20 2011, 02:22:28 UTC

Haiku is one of
the ancient and respected
arts of Japan! Yes!!

lovedthemoon May 20 2011, 09:58:00 UTC

Very good Tamaki!
I like your poem a lot
It's the best one yet

[audio] material_guy May 20 2011, 04:44:38 UTC

The sheets are messy
with, what, three body fluids?
Must tip the maid well.

[audio] lovedthemoon May 20 2011, 10:04:46 UTC

Your poem is correct
That doesn't mean I like it
You ruined my game

[audio] material_guy May 20 2011, 11:16:43 UTC

C'mon, what are you?
Some kinda uppity prude?
I could've said worse.

[audio] wow fail my computer is junk... lovedthemoon May 20 2011, 12:45:31 UTC

I'm no prude but still
You're a real perverted guy
Try again, Greed.. face. [yeah, he went there.]
