    I have removed my rape themed haiku.  I sincerely apologize to anyone and everyone who may have been offended by it.  It was shortsightedness on my part, I failed to consider the possibility of someone else finding it to be offensive.

    No one has to believe me, but I mean my apology from the bottom of my heart, I'm sorry.  This is the closest thing to taking administrative action against myself as I could think of.  Again, I'm really sorry.

    Well me too, but with the whole "Remy v. Paragon" vibe everyone seems hell bent on making, I decided we should have three parties: Remyublicans, Paragonialists, and Communist....I'm in the last one ;D

    there's a saying in Farsi that we say that sounds a lot better in Farsi but still rings true in English:

    Seeasat pedar-madar nadarad.

    Literally: Politics has no father or mother.
    Figuratively: Politics is a bastard child./Politics is an illegitimate child.

    Topic, what is it?
    StarCraft haiku, don't forget.
    Write about the game.

    There's another thread,
    It is fresh and new today:
    It goes by "Haikus"

    Now there is a place,
    Other words may be written
    Here, words are StarCraft.

    ---

    It has been a while
    Since my last Haiku arrived
    I will post some more.

    My Terran comments:
    Thin, almost nonexistent.
    I'll change that right now.

    Invisible death:
    Some Banshees and some missiles.
    If there ever was.

    A bomb or six men?
    Which kind of death do you need?
    The Ghost can bring both.

    Planetary Fort,
    Do your guns make you a god?
    Or a sitting duck?


    I will bet, right now:
    The Nomad will be revamped.
    Have any takers?


    Reapers are useful,
    But the Merc Haven? Really?
    A battlefield bar!


    The Viking is strange,
    At home in air or on land,
    But does it float, too?


    Look, it emerges!
    Erupting from the earth-- what?
    A Supply Depot?


    Don't need that Depot,
    I would like a refund please.
    Here is my receipt.

    (Salvage)

    It makes sense, I guess.
    Build ground units from the ground,
    Air units, the air.

    (Starbase)

    The Battlecruiser:
    A choice between upgrades, guns.
    Kill one or many?

    Area defense.
    The Predator, defender.
    Psheew, shoot down missiles!

    I am stopping now.
    Too many to read at once.
    You can have a break.

    What are all of these
    New units like the banshees
    I was gone so long

    Now I do not know
    What all of these units are
    Please explain to me

    And here's a more starcraft themed haiku :p

    The ghost sneaks around
    Sneaking, sneaking, without sound
    *Boom* oh no, a nuke!

    The Banshee, Wraith's child,
    Turbofans, cloaking device,
    Sweet scatter missiles.

    Sadly, no AA,
    Like Guardian, ground-only.
    Valkyrie, reversed.

    No more Goliath,
    Lumpy Viking replaces,
    It says, "Churn and burn!"

    Built at Factory,
    Twin chainguns, two legs, nimble,
    Upgrade makes it fly!

    Cobra, not Vulture,
    I do not much understand.
    Shoots while moving...fine.

    Predator, fighter.
    Shoots air and ground, one cool note:
    It shoots down missiles.

    Starbase: Starport plus,
    Always lifted off, why land?
    Build ships while flying.

    People won't shut up...
    About...what?, the Thor, quite big.
    One shot: dead PF.

    What is a PF?
    Planetary Fortress, yup:
    CC plus big guns.

    Not just the PF
    Many new buildings! Old changed!
    I can't say enough...

    Here, I pass my torch,
    YouTube is more coherent:
    BlizzCon: Terran Race

    Watch them, be amazed.
    They cover much more than I
    Format: not haiku.

    I've played SC2,
    Of course: I was at BlizzCon.
    Don't hold back questions!

    I wish to reply
    comment on the posts at hand
    haiku thread this is

    Though the fact remains
    poetry man I am not
    I will play along

    First I drop my jaw
    rub my eyes in disbelief
    take a better look

    Can't believe my eyes
    utterly awesome they are
    10-Neon's haikus

    Power up it is
    you deserved one all along
    it's a big thumbs up

    Took me long enough
    but I got my point across
    I loved what I saw

    better but on the first 1 you have to remember that when you put 's to a word it adds a syllable

    Contraction: the point?
    You cut down on syllables!
    Don't you love cheating?

    Doesn't always work...
    "Doesn't", "you're", "they're"...see?
    I say "here's" with one.

    Back on topic now,
    How long until Zerg are here?
    I hope they come soon.

    Episode 1. Choices

    The fire consumed me.
    Choice divided me swiftly,
    to live or to die?

    The blade came to life,
    my answer was now chosen.
    The blade made my choice.

    Standing I prepared,
    The berserk beast made one charge.
    My blade cut it down.

    More would follow now,
    All would perish at my hand.
    Now? Now I'm free.
