Walking Dead Haiku

edited November 2014 in The Walking Dead

Hey dudes,

Thought this might be fun, so come up with your own walking dead game haiku poetry! (These are basically three line poems with 5 syllables in the first line, 7 syllables in the middle, and 5 syllables in the last!). Don't worry, they're surprisingly easy!

I have a few:

Clementine loved Lee

But he was not her father

His name was Edward


Lilly shot Carley

She felt anger inside her

Is there ever rest?


A broken man walks

He has lost as much as them

But they don't bully


A woman alone

She tries hard to improve but

Is she a lost cause?


A teenager yells

But she is scared like others

She, struggling, hides it


The dead eat thousands

Live humans kill even more

Who are the monsters


He runs up to her

Panting for food in a can

Soon death will find him

    Larry was a dick

    Kenny dropped a saltlick

    Lee held Lilly back

  • Your middle line doesn't have enough syllables :)

    Larry was a dick Kenny dropped a saltlick Lee held Lilly back

  • I know "dropped" is one syllable, but whatever.

    Kenny was a prick

    But I did not care at all

    He remains my friend

    (Not sure if I got the size right, but, anyway)

    You nearly did, but your last line contains one syllable too many.

    You get bit or shot

    in a land where the dead walk...

    Try not to get lost!

  • Change it to "Kenny had dropped a saltlick." 7 syllables right there.

    Hey, a haiku thread!

    I made one a while back

    It's buried now though

  • "He will be my friend." 5 syllables.

  • Will fix that.

  • But that makes it sound like Larry was a dick after or because Kenny murdered him which doesn't make sense.

    Yeah, that could work, too, but I changed it to "He remains my friend".

    "He will be my friend." 5 syllables.

  • Never mind, "remains" sounds better.

  • Alright then. "Kenny dropped a big saltlick." 7 syllables and it makes sense.

  • Well...sort of.

    Like, the saltlick isn't bigger than normal.

  • Sorry for your loss

    This thread seemed to be cool

    Shameful display
