Haiku Contest For “The Coup”


The haiku contest for last week was so good, I’ve been looking forward to the one for this week. This time, we write about “The Coup.”

For those of you visiting for the first time, a Haiku is a “Japanese lyric verse form having three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables, traditionally invoking an aspect of nature or the seasons.” So basically, you have to have three lines of 5, 7 and 5 syllables and they don’t have to rhyme. Of course, instead of nature or season, we are going to write about that weeks episode. It can sum up the whole plot, or just one part that you liked. After a couple days, we’ll choose a winner.

Here is my Haiku for The Coup:

Dwight loves his waffles
But after Michael’s lesson
Dwight was what he ate

I now turn over the reins to you…

    It’s not difficult
    to eat peanut M-and-M’s
    with newfangled crowns.

    Eh, fax the resume of
    that vacuum instead.

    Call of Duty, fine!
    Midday shopping trip, Jan’s there!
    But movies, hell no.

    Those ticking timebags!
    Two episodes in a row!
    Pam covers them up!

    Year’s worth of laundry…
    Dwight will dry clean Michael’s jeans
    At least fifty times.

    Piggish pancake lunch?
    A surefire promotion
    For that loyal Schrute!

    Jim and Karen bond
    Over their mutual love:
    Blowing Andy up

    A Hai-coup for Dwight

    Crentist sure can’t help
    Dwight replace his princely crown
    Michael’s throne is safe

    Shakespeare is everywhere

    The Thane of Scranton
    And his lady just cannot
    Break the tiger’s branch

    The Call of Duty

    Smiles and Grenades
    So am I a psychopath
    For liking Karim?

    Pull the pin and toss,
    Then add a smile from Jim.
    Karen’s got it bad.

    He still misses Pam.

    Pretendinitis.
