Game Haiku Train!

[kiely]

memento mori
"keeper of the seven seals"
Why so serious ?

 

[jasperkent]

Why so serious?
Life and Death are on my mind:
Laughing all the way

 

[Shambles]

Laughing all the way
Like the bankers to the trough
Happiness bought, sold

 

[jasperkent]

Happiness bought, sold
As if that were possible:
American Dream!

 

[Shambles]

American Dream!
Often a nightmare for others
And also their own

 

[vision conquest]

Happiness, bought, sold
we all get what we pay for
beware clearence sales

@jasperkent, @Shambles...sorry, I do know how to play this game, you guys must have posted while I was putting my contribution together.
And also their own
hindsight is always perfect
don't ever look back

 

[Shambles]

Don’t ever look back
You’ll only find yourself there
Then forward looking

( how the heck does one make posts line up in a three form?)

 

[Shambles]

Erm… dunno… I just type a Return after each line and it works fine (on mobile, at least). I suspect I’m misunderstanding your question though

You did it correctly.
You make a new Haiku using the last line posted as your first line.

Sometimes simultaneous posts occur, causing confusion.

 

[jasperkent]

Then forward looking
Till you come all the way 'round
Back where you started

 

[kiely]

Back where you started
Only one outlook on life
Taking others down

 

[jasperkent]

Taking others down
Is ill-advised: you can be
Taken down with them

 

[Shambles]

Taken down with them
The wisest ones dig graves twice
But they die alone

 

[jasperkent]

But they die alone
Just like they were born alone
What is in-between?

 

[kiely]

What is in-between?
Out for the kill and for blood
The lies are a script

 

[jasperkent]

The lies are a script
Society delivers
To every newborn

 

[kiely]

To every newborn
Like I'm going to fall for crap
Methamphetamine

 

[unodelacosa]

Methamphetamine
Buzzing through the streets like a
Hyper bumble bee
