Is there going to be a Last Word thread this year?

[Joel P. Shempert]

It surely does not
Who taught you phonics? Listen:
Un-for-toon-at-ly.

[JMendes]

Hoy, :)

A haiku flame war
Over syllables, no less
Who would have thought it?

Cheers,
J.

P.S. Pennance

[Joel P. Shempert]

"Pennance" is no word
an unholy amalgam
"Penance" plus "pennant."

[Nathan P.]

Either way thats five.
What, are you British? Whatev,
victory is mine!

[Joel P. Shempert]

Do you hear weeping?
Must be the English language
"whatev" makes it sad.

[JMendes]

Hiyah, :)

Yes, the double enn
Was complet'ly fault of mine
An honest mistake

Cheers,
J.

P.S. Orthography

[Joel P. Shempert]

odd apostrophe
Could it be you count silent
"e's" as syllables?

[JMendes]

Ahey. :)

Indeed, so I did
Not being a native brit
Or even a yank

Cheers,
J.

P.S. Phoneticist

[Joel P. Shempert]

Japanese artform
Rendered into English by
Portuguese native?

[Nathan P.]

So tired i could
puke. So time for bed. I hope
Clinton shuts down soon!

P.S. Well-played, my friends. Well played indeed. Happy birthday Forge, and a good night to all!

[JMendes]

Hi, :)

Is it not so cool?
Ambassadorial, too!
Cosmopolitan...

Cheers,
J.

P.S. Heh! From my own haiku! Ambassadorial.

[Joel P. Shempert]

Yes, I can feel it
Brotherhood across oceans
Bridge of syllables.

PS. loquacious

[JMendes]

Hi, :)

This is getting old.
The prophet has retired.
Yet I shall endure.

Cheers,
J.

P.S. Tenacious

[Joel P. Shempert]

Will Clinton save us?
The question now is burning:
When is the deadline?

PS. fermentation.

[JMendes]

Hi, :)

The end draws ever
Near to us! Midnight is fast
Approaching. Last words?

Cheers,
J.

P.S. Frenetic
