I'd love if they all read our board. Do we have a Marat haiku yet? Anyone?

I'll take a shot at it:
Russian to slow down
Maybe he won't Everest
Sister, make him play

Love that, wrongami. Hoping for a Safin(a) resurgence this year! Hey, wait! That's a haiku!! If I were tiki I'd load us up with emoticons right about now --  |

Ironic emoticons, oops! And thanks for the Safin haiku, wrongami.
This thread has gotten so far into my subconscious. I'm doing a writing project with a couple friends for fun, and when I became uninspired, I sent them a haiku instead. I know, I'm pathetic. I blame the 100'F-plus heat.

Goblin-faced crapbag,
Egomaniacal stooge,
Justin Gimelstob.

If I didn't have to work today, I'd do a sonnet called "Ode to a Goblin-Faced Crapbag."
Maybe we could each do a line or two?
Or a limerick! Oh, like I can concentrate on work now. Crap.

There was was a douche named Justin
Whose tennis skills were a'rustin'
He is just a hack
Talking some smack
About the chickies he is lustin'.
Wow, that's bad. But I can work now.

There once was a goblin-faced crapbag
Whose hair looked like that of an old hag.
He's a prick and a pig;
Justin's ego's too big,
And he makes all the tennis fans gag.
(with credit to apocalipstick, of course.)

tikigirl love your limerick. I keep forgetting to check this forum. It's because I've got something roaming in my head that goes like...
"Friends, Romans and country men
Lend me your ear.
I come to bury Justin, not to praise him..." Stop me. Seriously.
On another note.
Clement and Schuettler.
One in the semi finals.
Who are they again?

How about a sonnet for Marat? I'll start (with most abject apologies to William Shakespeare).
=Ode to a Broodalicious Russian=
Shall I compare you to a thunderstorm?
You are more fiery; more explosive too.
Sultry and brooding in both face and form --
Broken hearts and racquets trail behind you.

That? Is totally awesome. He's such a Shakespearean character - and on the English lawn, no less.

Join in, oops, that was just the beginning! If I remember from my old college days, a (Shakespearean) sonnet goes in the form abab, cdcd, efef, gg. So there's more to write! Get cracking!
