laptop backlight fails,
opened up, reassembled,
now it's working fine?

I'm Considering
writing my coursework's help file
mostly in haiku.

my skeleton:
it might not walk properly,
but there are haikus!

actually, bad idea.
instead, I shall aim to do
things will get me marks

Work; Thee shall be slain!
Candles burn after midnight,
At periapsis.

innocent souls? here?
the scifi society?
we've all read HP...

in terms of spoilers,
it's not that major of one,
to those on twitter

the trending topic:
it's #RIP Dobby.
so I think it's safe.

Tea experiments
Of some sort? It would be most
Red carp marmalade

Hmm, seem to have some
Is made of Tuesday because
In the haiku stream

Hold on, I'll noodle
To a different ch-tang!
Ah, that's sorted it

As I was saying:
Tea. Experiments upon.
Most English, what what?

Either more or less
Caffeine seems to be required.
I'm not quite sure which.

This is still my curse.

the clock hands spin round
the time awake still climbing
waiting for the crash

malleable time
the sleepless nights gain meaning:
procrastination

the blur of today,
memories barely half formed,
yet already worthless

meaning once obscure
now gained at sanity's price
flows to glowing box

bright semicircles
from thought to reality
pour out completing

the logic formed now,
and the tab dancing over.
the existence shared

clarity at last
the question was just a trick:
divide by zero!

all that remains now
to horrify Lambada
extensive testing

it might still happen.
my insomnia induced
haiku making spree

Would anyone mind,
If Haiku were collected,
Sold for charity?

I had wondered if
Such a thing could happen, but
Decisions remain:

Who gets the money?
Are there too many injokes?
Pulbish just this thread?

Should we collect
All our members' willingly
Contributed verse?

Do we include more;
Appendices containing
Other threads on here?

Do we too include
Self-referencing haiku
(answers to this post)?

Just A select few.
Haiku Book will be for all,
Expunge the in-joke

Everything Else will,
Be Sorted in Due Time, and
has self-reference!
