KSPooky Haiku Challenge

[KSK]

Another non-Twitter user here I'm afraid - but have a haiku anyway.

Kerbonaut stranded

Insufficient rocket thrust

Pumpkins make poor fuel

[*MajorTom*]

non-Twitter user 

 

Val wanna go space
Missiles are missing
So difficult way today  

[Darth Badie]

"MOAR boosters and struts"

Don't dare let him take control

'cause Jeb is quite nuts

 

I am fine with it being on twitter, but I don't have one so I can't enter it myself. Could someone else do it maybe?

If this needs explaining, please say so. Its the worst poem by far.

#KSPooky

Some may enjoy earth,

Many may enjoy Kerbin,

but I favor looks.

#KSPooky
Returning from far away
The craft is now astray
reentry is hot as hell
this will not end well...

[Mr. Peabody]

No twitter but here it is:

#KSPooky     

The evil space goo

Encompassed by mystery

 Is forever veiled...

Dark nights descending

On October's secret end

Hallogreen returns!

 

Green eye rises on

Day to honour the fallen

Jool's foretold return

No Kerbals will die?

What kind of challenge is this?

I may have to pass...

;-D

Bob and Bill are scared as can be.

Jeb is excited, as you can see.

Gene's given him command of a capsule that holds three.

Flying above Jool

The Kraken's lurking nearby

Explosions ring out

Jeb sits on the pad

Kraken takes his flight today

Val and Bill and Bob

In a battered mark 2 pod

Falling into Jool

Hello, I enjoy everyone's haiku on Twitter and Thread.

I have seen Mexico's "Day of the Dead" (Día de Muertos) in some media, but I knew the culture "Calaveritas" for the first time. The area where I live also celebrates our ancestry lively with fireworks and decorations, Mexico looks more lively.

Haiku is a typical poetry of 5-7-5, 17 letters (in Japan), but there is also a format called free rhythm (Jiyu-ritsu). I think that syllables are just guidelines if it is an English haiku.
Because Japanese people are also writing humorous KSP haiku in Japanese, I would like to introduce them. However if we translate our haiku into English, I think that the number of words will be extremely low.

Eboshi I for one would love to see some of these translated. Don't worry about the word count. We are celebrating a Mexican tradition with a Japanese tradition in English. What can go wrong?

YES, please!

No problem if the word count is off because of translation, I would love to read them!

The darkness of space

Terrifies any Kerbal

It's the place to be

[adsii1970]

Boom splat poof

Jeb is in control

KSC needs a new space plane hangar
