Taking lines from H. P. Lovecraft’s Fungi from Yuggoth sequence, I put them through The Interactive Haiku Generator. I then took the mangled results, and macheted them into a variety of haiku forms (See 65 Haiku Rules).
Beneath blackened boughs reeking quays – the peals gathered
great wailing branches
Every morning I sing of Iskorahk Gisorie, the drunkards sit in heavy loads, but the river is waiting for me ~ And on the wedding day, Kramga't Gahoh'k, I forget no prayer - keep away from the children I will destroy my enemies with the blind snake.
Avoid the
misleading,
weapons and
everything that is small -
the orchid sighs
secrets are revealed
the blister bulges
stars rain down swans moan – sadness
mud-broken wheel spokes
Gums by Poe:
The Masque of the Red Death - great for parties, it will spread like a plague
The Cask of Amontillado - well aged, packaged to look like small bricks in a wall
Nevermore - the last gum you will need
