    Poems, Limericks and Haikus

    A place to post your own original poem, limerick or haiku. Or you can post someone else's that you like as long as you put it in quotes. You don't have to explain it, I am just explaining the one below to give some context.


    This poem was written in the Chatbox regarding the difference between English-speaking and non-English-speaking countries and how they use commas and periods when writing numbers. For example the English number 123,456,789.55 would be written in the Netherlands as 123456789,55 if I understand it correctly.

    BoredJedi asked when they had started writing numbers that way, to which I replied


    When cavemen ruled the earth
    Lo these many years ago
    The Euros put a comma
    Where a period should go

    A haiku I've always liked.

    With searching comes loss
    And the presence of absence
    'My Novel' not found

      As if anyone
      Would take time out their day
      To make a crap poem

      I used all my points
      To get a double meat
      They left the guacamole off
      'Tis nothing but a cheat

        What an outrage, Chuft
        Personally I would sue
        For a thousand something-sand gajillion dollars
        But you do you

          I miss macOS
          it wasn't even that bad
          I used to be a Microsoft fanboy
          And thought apple was just a fad


          But the iPod was revolutionary
          iMovie was great
          I wish I noticed the broken power outlet
          But by then it was too late

            Magnús: - I have fans of all ages and I don't think it's weird when older people like LazyTown. LazyTown appeals to people for many different reasons: dancing, acrobatics, etc.

                  Her perfect voice rings through my mind 
                  I hear her in my head
                  ”Now imagine her as Ziggy”
                  Alas the dream is dead

                    I think that deserves its own post in this thread.

                      I love piracy
                      It's very cool
                      And if you're against it
                      U r a fool

                        Time to drink some stars
                        A trillion metric tons
                        Time to eat some moons
                        Time to crap some suns

                        I met a squinting woman
                        With hairy hands and feet
                        She startled me by howling
                        And loped off down the street
