The purists may condemn this....

They wouldn't know a Haiku

Alas poor Gaijin

If it bit them on the ass

 

 

This sure ain't Haiku.

but it sure is fun!:happyberet:

 

Alas the purist pre-condemned it

I would never condemn anybody who was having any kind of fun with language. I have only been silent on the thread because I have hit a brick wall trying to finish my limerick. It begins: A zombie who lived in Khartoum... Can anybody help me out?

bought in 2004, which I never used (or even filled!!!)I certainly do love writing instruments, particularly fountain pens, but not this one, despite its quality...
Sometimes new items may not be what they appear until they are used for a while....then they just may be the best thing since sliced bread.

A Zombie who lived in Khartoum

Liked to eat brains with a spoon,

He'd scoop out the head,

Then dip in some bread,

Whilst his poor wife went into a swoon.

Happiness isn't getting what you want, it's wanting what you've got.

Well done! But, only, I was having some tea when I read it, and your limerick made me snort it out through my nose!

I thought limericks were "blue"

describing what some perverts do

when locked in their rooms

with some furry racoons

so I prefer writing Haiku.

I apologize, I cannot let this one go.

 

 

A Zombie who lived in Khartoum

enjoyed beating out brains with a broom

when out at night

he took great delight

in eating while dressed in costume

This is so very true, but being family oriented we do have to tone it down a bit. This is not the right place to recount the tale of the Bishop of Buckingham.

The Bishop of Buckingham said

that he greatly admired the dead

not 'cause how they walked

nor 'cause how they talked

but 'cause they're so easily fed.

Sorry, another Zombie from Khartoum just attacked me

 

A zombie who lived in Khartoum

tended to overconsume

brains on his toast

of which he would boast

were from friends he liked to exhume

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
