Science News Haiku
Like other haiku schemes here
Will become a list.
-- bungston, Jul 10 2009


I don't think it will -

Lists are frowned on in the 'bakery.

But I could be wrong.
-- normzone, Jul 10 2009


Wrong indeed you are
For scientific haiku
deserve a croissant
-- 8th of 7, Jul 10 2009


Your annotation
Is not merely cryptic, but
Ignores the verse form

daseva has failed

his last line was too lengthy

And Quest did his well.

But where is the news
Of science promised ? Here we
Sadly find it not.

Grant available!
Prove that smoking is healthy.
Researchers queue up.
-- DrBob, Jul 12 2009


There was a researcher who, like you,
Tried composing his findings in haiku.
At meetings they shunned him,
No funders would fund him,
And his students all came out on striku.
-- MaxwellBuchanan, Jul 12 2009


Elegant. Simple.
Mass times the speed of light squared
Equals Energy.

Elegant, simple,
But not really science news.
More like science olds.

Well that depends upon your timescale surely?

remembering sports results

hmm, talking of which
i could use a ladyfriend
my flat is a state!

oh dear I've stepped
over the mark a bit there

The think about haiku
Is that it doesn't rhyme much
Which I don't laiku.

Atom panicking!
Has he lost an electron?
Yes, he's positive.

Hey [zen], you forgot
about bicycle mainten-

-- hippo, Jul 14 2009


Oh yes! So I did!
while we're at it, who's going
to change all those bulbs?

[po] I would think twice
before writing us quite off
we might be handy!
-- zen_tom, Jul 14 2009


wouldn't dream of writing you off or [hippo]

I'd even help with the flat if you get some beer in!
-- po, Jul 14 2009


Careful, I might take you up on that! Although, conversely, if I drink enough beer, I don't mind quite so much about the (un)tidiness of the flat. In this way, a natural equilibrium emerges.
-- zen_tom, Jul 14 2009

Thanks for the tip, po/wagster. Now that I'm armed with breakability I'll try another lame effort:

Science haiku riles.
We protest poetically.

-- theleopard, Jul 16 2009


Most of the above
"haikus" lack names of seasons.
So, they're senryu.

This is the point where
you call me a pedant, and
maybe a right prick.

Which is fair, of course.
I am not sure how to end.
Refrigerator.
