Fragile Bird

Recommended Posts

1. 5. STARK

Passerby gaze inwards momentarily.

~ Remember ~

2. 11. Severed promise.

Grey, immortal mourning reigns.

3. 4. Still proudly growling, "I maintain resistance."

4. 7. Suddenly, painfully, grievously impaled. Mother's regret.

5. 8. Strong, proud, gone in mere ruse.

First - 10. Snow piles grief. Ice metes revenge.

Second - 11. Severed promise.

Grey, immortal mourning reigns.

Third - 15. Seldom Pretentious,

Gleefully Idealistic,

Monstrously Robbed.

Fourth - 2. Silent prayer: Gods, inspire my realm.

Fifth - 7. Suddenly, painfully, grievously impaled. Mother's regret.

1st: 4. Still proudly growling, "I maintain resistance." <--- This is the spirit I wanted to capture but just couldn't. :bowdown:



2nd: 13. Skillfully Played.


"Greetings" Intention

Maliciously Relayed!


3rd: 9. Sew... Poor Greywind Is My Replacement? <--- Even though this references an act that horrifies me beyond all else, I have to vote for it because...wit.


4th: 6. Son persisted gamely; insolently murdered - renegades!


5th: 7. Suddenly, painfully, grievously impaled. Mother's regret.



Now, I'm going to encourage my cat to lie on the keyboard and see what he can come up with for Tywin...

One day I'm going to make a haiku, and it's going to get every vote.

I did a haiku a while back for winter, when we did the seasons. Letters - IAWFF TMUSW KSUNC

In a white frost fort

The months unfold slowly, while

Knights send up news crows.

Can't remember if I submitted it or not.

We remember Robb Stark...

#1 11. Severed promise.
Grey, immortal mourning reigns.

#2 1. Some paths grimly instigate man's ruination.

#3 14. Southrons proudly guard,

Incised many regards.

#4 16. Sadly pretenders get important marriages red.

5. STARK

Honestly didn't think it would be recognized as a haiku.

It was a toss up between

In a white frost fort

The months unfold slowly, while

Knights send up news crows.

and

It’s academic - winter follows fall,

The months unfolding slowly

Within keen season, until newer call.

So I think I went with this:

Information about Winter: Following Fall the maesters usually send white kawing semiotics, ushering numbing coldness.

:ohwell:
