The MCP will not be deleted so easily!
The Forces of Red will fight back.
Now I just have to get dillenger to give me that chinese translation program I needed.

Very good dave... I'm impressed....

Ok here's my attempt....



"There once was a program from Nantucket......"

Well, ok, maybe not that one.

Prankster bit Wrote:that is pretty good. i thought haikus went 5 - 7 - 5 instead of 3 - 5 - 3 or have i been intelectually swindled again?

I researched the structure as a refresher before writing that. 3-5-3 and many other variations are accepted as haiku.

I used to fancy myself a poet in Jr. High School, trying to impress girls. I wrote tons of haikus thinking I'd get some action!

I ventured into song writing in high school and college years.

I had a brief musical career before I became a geek and took a different path.

Someday I will share some video with all of you of my one video-taped live performance.

I know that one....

There once was a program from Nantucket,
Who kept lots of probes in a bucket,
When a data disc flashed,
He sat down on that stash,
Now his probes are all stuck in his socket!

Hee hee hee!

TRON Poem 01010100

Bad guys glow red
Good guys glow blue
To dig up the truth
Flynn sent in Clu

Foiled by Recos
Clu's tank hit the wall
Soon Group Access 7
Had no access at all

Flynn forged group 6
In the laser bay, see
Then Master Control
Said come visit me!

To the game grid
Flynn was sent to die playing
But escaped through the wall
The rules disobeying

Flynn, TRON, and RAM
Sought out the red cone
But RAM didn't make it
Flynn pressed on alone

TRON hooked up with Yori
Flynn flew in to town
That broken old reco
Ended up on the ground

The three all met up
Sailed across Mickey's face
And far down below
The grid bugs did race

TRON derezzed Sark
Flynn jumped the ship
MCP was defeated
Which ended Flynn's trip

Alan and Laura
Looked sharp for their boss
And out popped Flynn smiling
From his chopper ride across

"Greetings programs" he says
The trio reunited
Such a great kick-ass film
It left us delighted!

Two decades later
The film does still shine
We loved it so much

Well, I won't win any poem awards with that, but it was fun. Had that roses are red, violets are blue rhythm going there.

Excellent Todd!

Great poems! very impressive.

This Light-Cycle I Pose


This red Light-Cycle beeming,
beeming circit switches,
beeming circit glows,

... and yet another mystery I pose,

What is this that makes my Light-Cycle glow,
to reach the grid's end,
and chased by a Recognizer blows.


lol...

Very nice!

C'mon folks, there's got to be more creativity on this site!
