So, I had this idea that I'd take some of the haikus from throughout the season and put them in my book, so tonight I was reading through all of them (and laughing my head off all over again) and then realized with some horror that I never posted a haiku post for the finale!!
So, now I invite everyone to come and give me your best haiku for "The End."
Jack stumbles and falls
Lies in the bamboo forest.
Closes eyes. Lets go.
Me: "SOB!! Sniffle! WAH!
Oh my god I can't believe
it's over... WAAAAH!! SOB."
Wow. I hope that in
my Finding Lost book I am
more articulate.
It was all real, Jack.
ReplyDeleteBut yep. You are for real dead.
Sorry about it.
The light is held by
ReplyDeletea giant stone sink-stopper?
Seriously? Oh.
Team Hurley and Ben!
ReplyDeleteTogether until the end.
T'was the best of times…
The lesson we learned,
ReplyDeleteRemember, Let go, Move on
Was Jack's final fix
"You were a great 2"
ReplyDelete"It was my pleasure to serve.
And share candy bars."
How will Smokey die?
ReplyDelete"I saved a bullet for ya!"
Kate to the rescue!
Well, we came, we fought
ReplyDeleteWe destroyed, we corrupted
Ma hates the playas
Always ends the same?
Nah, love and faith changed the game
It only ends once
Magic Glowing Cave
ReplyDeleteAll men want to enter it
Hmm, what say you, Freud?
Ooooh, a haiku post? Delicious.
ReplyDeleteJack's the new Jacob,
Then Hurley's the new Jack and
Ben's the new Richard.
I don't know. I don't
Think guyliner would look too
Good on Ol' Bug Eyes.
Two nods to Star Wars
In the first five minutes? Oooh.
Total geekgasm!
Hurley with the tranq
Gun. So casual, so cool.
Hurley is badass!
Anyone else see
Charlie on Chuck? Tranqued many
Times. Oh so funny.
Has an episode
Gone by without Ben getting
King hit in the face?
Every time I
See Cool Hippie Bernard I
Think 'The Dude abides'.
I fully forgot
That Sawyer calls Hurley Big
Foot! I miss them all. :(
The scene where Jack tells
Flocke not to reminisce just
Confirms my man-crush. :)
The Claire-Charlie kiss
Had me crying like a small
Girl. Again. Damn show!
The Jack-Flocke fight is
One of the best scenes ever.
Go Jack! Kick his ass!
The end of the show?
Perfect. Bookends. Sadness. And
now? I say REWATCH!
That's all for now. I'll think of more, I'm sure, but I'm watching the end of Supernatural season 3 right now, and can't concentrate on haiku. Anyone who hasn't watched this show must start now. Oh, and YAY LOST HAIKU!!!!
Old friends reunite
ReplyDeleteLovers find what they had lost
The rest is silence.
This is my first Haiku
ReplyDeleteIt is not so easy to do
Can you tell ?!
It all ends bad,
It all ends good
you choose - all viewers are happy !
ok - so the second one is a syllable short
ReplyDeleteall praise to the excellent Haikus above this !!!
"Sob" the end at last.
ReplyDeleteNo more Desmond smacks, or Jack
Jeers--the end, alas.
Jack, Locke in conflict,
I had hoped John would say, "Jack,
I am your father."
The island is Freud's:
Kate gets a gun, Desmond a ...
Well, we won't go there.
Hurley, Ben, number
One and number two. Bad choice
Of nick-names as toddler's know.
Oh! My heart explodes
ReplyDeletewith a ringing joy. At last
LOST haiku returns!
"Previously on
ReplyDeleteLOST... er.... ah... hmmm... the... wait-how
much time do I have?"
When Jacob said the
ReplyDeleteisland was a cork, who knew
it was literal??
Throughout six seasons,
ReplyDeletewe charted the course for all
of our Lostaways
Some left early on
Others came and went
(some by DUI) ; ]
But all of the ones
we cared about most stayed on
'til the bitter End.
And the one whose eye
was alpha and omega
proved we did know Jack
So, here's the lesson
from the Sideways Universe:
"Let go to move on"
Oh - and in The End
the Jack you take is equal
to the Jack you make
Cynicism is
ReplyDeleteMiles' middle name - but he
believes in duct tape!
Oh how like Flight of
ReplyDeleteThe Phoenix the plane rose, and Jack saw it go.
A strange errie fact,
There's no fix for being dead,
And no going back.
No Pearly Gates, but
Two doors to a white light, and
In The End it works.
Only TV Jack
ReplyDeleteleft worth watching? Donaghy.
Haiku well ran dry
when Des, Ben, and James
cozied up with the Big Bad
one time too many
for water cooler
style chats, winding up ropes,
that never played out.
Just like the plot lines
for escapist Grandpa Ray;
Shoe Two never dropped.
Not by questions left
unanswered, but by promise
abandoned, fallow,
have I been prodded
to let it go, to move on:
after all, Lost was:
Too good to survive,
Too intelligent to thrive,
Too pretty to last.

ReplyDeleteAlways knew that we
ReplyDeletecould count on TM Lawrence
to come through - haiku!
Kate has the last word:
"Hey Smokey - a bullet saved
is a bullet earned".
Scenes within the cave
really deserve their own show:
"Desmond Unplugged"?
Jack did fine work on
his restoration of the
"Hot Tub Time Machine".
I feel for poor Claire -
just how many times must she
have the damn baby?
Ben: "I don't think you
need that chair, John". Locke: "DON'T TELL
ME WHAT I DON'T NEED!!!"
Christian: "Yes, I'm real".
Jack: "I could've sworn you were
a smoke detector".
Nikki's dinner rocked
ReplyDeleteGood friends and conversation
The nachos were nice.
In The End, I say
ReplyDeleteall faith and no more science
makes Jack a dull boy.
It seems clear to me
ReplyDeletethat in "The End" what matters
most is love, of course.
No tears came until
Aaron was "reborn" to Claire
and Kate and Charlie
"Still have things to do"
quoth Ben. Like hanging out with
Danielle and Alex?
Yeah! for Lost haiku!
How I will miss the weekly
fun and awful puns :D
