Poetry Contest

POETRY CONTEST! I love poetry. I want to see who can make the
best poem. It can be a haiku, or just a regular poem. Any type
of poem.
Example of a haiku I think is funny:
Haikus are easy.
But sometimes they don't make sense.
Refrigerator.

Presenting the worst haiku in the world:
A good haiku ne-
-ver splices words across lines,
or miscounts syllables.
Also, an obscure-pun-turned-haiku:
M. T. Cicero:
"O tempura! O morays!"
(Ordering seafood)

whoopee here's a poem about the Holocaust:
I am Alive
the screams
the hauntings
the life I tried
so hard to leave
the pain
the wantings
the people I tried
not to grieve
it’s all coming
back to me
everything
that happened
that hellish life
those hellish days
when I was lucky
to escape.
verboten
forbidden
my life before
that futile war
the authorities
came back for me
the Aryans
and the shotguns
we were
untermenschen
not worth the mention
but I survived
I got through
and I am alive.

We had to do a poetry project for English once--5 metaphor
poems, 3 limericks, and about 10 other (long) poems.
