Home from work at last
crack open an ice cold beer
Ahh, much better now
(This is an old one...from when I was among the employed)
I'm the Dude
So that's what you call me
If you're into the whole brevity thing
In haiku format 3-5-3 it would sound more like this:
I'm Duderino
If you're into brevity
You can call me Dude
I just realized that sounded kind of un-Dudely. I hope you didn't take it that way. If you did...just tell me to "Shut the fuck up Donny!"
My ball is rolling
straight into the gutter
I should let go now
liking them all, Dudes - keep rolling. A big thanks to Forumdude for promptly clearing up that rash of spam, there. Have I mentioned before how much I admire his knees? You know, an inspiration strikes! We need to get a cast of DL's knees and then we could make 'em into cups/mugs to sell to the faithful - help feed the monkey (save up for a site of our own?). Put me down for a couple of cups . . why stop at the knees? 8) Bet the Pope is kicking himself, Dudes - all that kneeling though, wouldn't want to look up his dress to see his knees, man - doesn't bare thinking about. Still, knee-cups have got Pope-on-a-rope soap beat, hands down (or up or allover).

But I will abide
Will no one else play?
Does my haiku not inspire?
I am ashamed dudes.

Overseeing homework at the moment (Ill play later - meet you in the park); but I am grabbing a look here and there
I think I created a few monsters...

Greetings appreciated
So glad to be here

The duder
Right chaps now you have mastered the simple form (17 syllables) we can take it up a notch.
It is common for westerners to write what is simply a seventeen syllable sentence, now where there is no problem with this, older (stricter) Haiku schools suggest other forms:
5
7
5
syllables that is.
Also there is the position of an initial idea (5 syllables),
Then an alternative idea (7 syllables),
Then an idea that links the two (5 syllables)
My own favourite poet and master of the form is Santōka M. Taneda (now better known as
Santōka) in the beautiful "Mountain Tasting: Zen Haiku".
The man spent his life wandering around the mountains getting pissed, and writing poetry, a true Dude.
"there were two main streams in the haiku world: one
working in a more or less traditional form using modern
themes, and the other, the shinkeikō, or new-development,
movement, which abandoned the standard 5-7-5 syllable pat-
tern and the obligatory use of a word to indicate the season,
or kigo."
to quote "Mountain Tasting"
But I do defer to Santōka Taneda: Haiku Master (http://eleventhstack.wordpress.com/2010/01/25/santoka-taneda-haiku-master/)
Quote from: Santōka Taneda: Haiku Master website
The one thing most people do know about haiku is inaccurate; haiku in English is not a 17 syllable, three-line poem with 5 syllables to the first line, 7 to the second line, and 5 to the third line. At least, it is not only that. It is approximately that way in Japanese (although Japanese haiku are written in one line, not three), but in English 10 to 14 syllables more approximates the length of Japanese haiku because the rough Japanese equivalent to syllables, morae, are much shorter. Of course, the issue is more complicated than this; here is one of the best (http://dictionary.babylon.com/japanese/japanese-alphabet/), simplest explanations I could find.
The reason I quote Santōka (http://www.terebess.hu/english/haiku/taneda.html) is because he is a none conformist to the strict rules of haiku.
Quote from: Santoka Taneda
"Real haiku is the soul of poetry. Anything that is not actually present in one's heart is not haiku. The moon glows, flowers bloom, insects cry, water flows. There is no place we cannot find flowers or think of the moon. This is the essence of haiku. Go beyond the restrictions of your era, forget about purpose or meaning, separate yourself from historical limitations?there you will find the essence of true art, religion, and science."

Feigning ignorance,
swallows them ever slowly.
Now who is the fool?
( I wrote that about 5 years ago as I was finally realizing that I was beginning to know actually know less about the world and life as I was aging, and that although I could still use socratic irony to learn from, that it was actually making me look stupid to others, and the more you use it, the less respectable you become in the eyes of others, because there are simply more stupid people on earth that don't understand, and if you pretend to be stupid in a world of morons, you will be forgotten and ignored very quickly. The weak minded have no patience, or grasp of advanced learning mechanics. And in the age of information, it is easily manipulated or misinterpreted and distributed as the truth. So ultimately I decided that feining ignorance, can only cause harm, unless used in the teaching method to raise questions in a classroom enviornment. Using outside that enviornment, is hostile and dangerous. As with any other lie, or mistruth. It only causes more suffering and misunderstanding. The haiku itself reflects the question to it's author and it's audience as the truth can often be lost in translation by it's interpreters.)
As a former philosophy student and aspiring teacher, I use the Socratic method everywhere. He's one of my favorite philosophers. As an "undesirable" member of society (hippie, Dudeist, activist, anti-religion, gay-rights supporting, tree-hugging, broke ass loudmouth) I just like pissing people off. ; )
But that's just, like, my opinion, man....

sitting on the toilet
and laughing

Odd, I was going to put a Kerouac disc on this morning (just acquired a CD player and dug out the dusty old MP3 disc I brought with me to US land); chose Tom Waits, instead. Love this poem, and what a great idea; will need a little desk, though - to put in front of the toilet.
Well, that was before I had a laptop. I wrote that in 2002. Now I just take the computer into the bathroom. LOL!!!
;D Well, yeah - I have a laptop, too but a Dude needs to spread his knees a bit, you know. Sometimes he needs to brace himself. Small desk required. Another business opportunity, there, Dudes: toilet desks.

Cake dude, that is one righteous rug, mang. Far fucking out.
Thanks Dude, it has made an appearance here and there. Legend has it (when I get round to scribing it properly) that the rug-pisser juice was transformed into the image you see before you. Transformed by the power of the Dude Vibration (that we all hope to be blessed with. Adude) permeating the very weave of the rug after having lain in the Dudes presence for so long. In short, the rug was (and some say, still is) charged with Dudeness which could of course be preposterous bollocks (you decide).

(Meekon5) Nice one Dude.
@Uber Dude & M5: I think quite a few of us were aware (and occasional abusers) of the haiku form/genre, already - some weren't; whatever, I am really digging what Dudes are coming up with. ;D Enjoyed yours, M5 - any more? Kudos for getting the ball rolling, Uber. It might be a good idea - just rolling here - at some point (a few months, year) to collect Dude scribblings (on various threads) with a view to publishing a book. To be sold to raise funds for a Dude project (any more news on the Dude Internet Site?) or KIVA, or some such. I dunno, a Forum Annual*, perhaps - with art work. musings - you all know the type of thing (I'm thinking of Python books for inspiration). 8)
* or Dudeism Annual - with 'best' Dudespaper articles of the year, too.
The hubby and I were talking last night about maybe using some haikus in the book that is being written now, Tao of the Dude. What do you think about that?
For some reason I thought the Tao of The Dude was done and dusted (save for editing) - don't know why I thought that. If they are still looking for stuff - sure, why not. I still like the idea of an annual publication, though - think it would be fun.
Spam: I reported this fucker yesterday - appears to be dedicating a lot of time to pissing us off (a pissed-off christy? dude with a grudge or just a bot? seems personal). Anyway, fuck it - can't keep pace with latest posts)
You could be totally right. I'm new to all of this. Maybe we could just publish a "Dude-Ku"?
"Just Dude-Ku?"
Not sure that there will ever be enough to fill a decent sized book - don't know:
Dudeism annual?
Strictly dudeku? Just rolling
the pins are stacked
I have completely overlooked the colour text option - I'm gonna do some colouring-in ;D
I'm sure this group would be up to the task. We could break it us by subject just like the forum. It might be kind of cool.
Possibly, but then there's a danger that the dude-kus may be kinda contrived (to fit into a category); or a sense may develop that they are being judged worthy of book inclusion - and so lose any spontaneity/fun. Then I could be over-thinking it. Fuck it, do other Dudes wanna roll on this idea?

Shit dude, all haikus are contrived. Just go ahead a do it cakes. Set it up somewhere on the forum then wait to see who rolls.
I think once the dudes get the basic idea you should have at least a few contributing...maybe. But ya gotta remember rev cakebelly sir, this IS the dudeist forum...low standards and even lower expectations and all that!
Strikes and gutters dude...strikes and gutters.
" . . contrived"
You could be right, there, CC - you could be right; I can't get comfy on my rug today. As to doing it I guess that's what we've been doing. If Uber wants to set up a category or two we could see how we go (in my head I'll be rolling with the annual idea, though). ;)
I'd roll with whatever other Dudes want to abide by. Hey, it's all good with me. If not, we can just go bowling.
How do you wanna set up the pins, Uber?.
I guess we should first come up with topic ideas. How formal or informal you want those topics to be is the question. I'm thinking things like, Departed Dudes, Dudeism, Oat Soda, Bowling, Driving Around, Great Dudes, The Dude Himself, Acid Flashback (for the ones that really don't make sense or are about actual flashbacks), The Female Form, Aggression, Nihaliasts, Human Paraquats, etc.... chime in everybody...

Anyhoo, yeah like the 'departed dudes' idea - like 'em all really except, maybe, 'the dude himself. I think human paraquats, aggression and nihilists could all be lumped together. "Chimes' is a bit left-field, but hey, isn't that what we're all about (well, partly); what kind of chimes did you have in mind - door chimes, mystical chimes or some such?
Mount Duder, chimes the
league season: dust on ball
time to throw some rocks
that's a gag by the way
It's up to you dudes, I'm just like stating an opinion dudes!
Perhaps the aggression/paraquats thread etc could be titled "rug-pissers"? To include spammers
who the fuck is this?
All undudeness of your hearts
to fuckin spammers
You could be joking about the chimes but that wasn't a topic suggestion just away to say "state you input". I like Rug-pissers a lot. I thought of taking them from the De Ching too but I think we should be more informal since it's for fun and not meant to be a Holy book. At some point we should finalize a lit and figure out how to set it up for submissions. All input is helpful. Sorry I'm a bit distracted today as I am stuck on the news about this mass shooting over here in America. Pretty scary stuff.
Just curious why you don't like The Dude Himself. Think of all the ones that could be written about The Dude. Could be some good stuff... But, that's just like my opinion, man.
Wasn't aware of the shooting - doesn't seem to be a lot of info at the moment; people are saying that folk shouldn't rush to politicize it but you can't tell me that the ass-bagger movement and all it's evil Muppet masters haven't gone a long way to encouraging this kind of atmosphere. You could tell it was bound to happen eventually when they made a hero out of the asshole who took his gun to church awhile ago. http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/thereporters/markmardell/2011/01/febrile_politics_of_giffords_s.html (http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/thereporters/markmardell/2011/01/febrile_politics_of_giffords_s.html)
Yes, the chimes thing (as stated under the dudeku) was a gag. Just personally not into the mythologizing an imaginary character any more than it is now. That's just my opinion and I wouldn't object to a thread - maybe the spirit of Dudeism needs to be explored more than the figure. Anyway, I wouldn't do too much planning (that involves too much work - you don't want to end up wasting your time); let's just throw up a thread or two and see how it grabs others.
Oh yeah, I don't like that either. I was thinking The Dude Himself would cover any haikus about the Dude from the movie, the Dudely Llama or even Jeff Bridges. How do you want to do the thread. Maybe a large heading of Dudeku Book (or something like that. Then subheading of each topic so submissions could go to the right place. That could make for easier editing later.
BTW, I like your take on the Tea Baggers and would love to share it with a friend...with your permission of course. : )

Sure, go ahead but that does sound like a new board rather than a thread; but Dudeku Book work for me.
Sure (again) although probably best not to link the source - had enough of spammers and whackos, today (fuckin' Green Dragonists, too - wasn't aware of those crazy fucks, either).
Haiku or Dudeku
It all sounds really heavy
I think I'll lay down
I don't know how to start a new board. This is my first forum. Could someone tell me how. I guess once we had a board, the topics would be threads, right?

Sorry Uberdude, you will need to ask the forumdude to start a new board for the Dudeku book.
Yeah, Uber - you'll have to wait for DL; but that doesn't mean you can't choose a topic and write (one can always copy and paste, later).

Have no idea where Ollie is. He's missing when we need him most!
All I can do is delete. I have deleted at least a 100 of his post in the last 24 hours. Now it's time for bed dude, I'm all in.

Yeah man, I guess we need the ForumDude to pull a piece out in the forum and stick up godfreyshadf's ass until it goes click.
Not to worry, CC dude, your doing a great job, mang. This undude spammer will get it in the ass soon enough.
This is what happens, godfreyshadf, this is what happens when you fuck a forum in the ass, godfreyshadf, this is what happens. This is what happens WHEN YOU FUCK A FORUM IN THE ASS!

Ok achievers! Since the Dudely Lama gave me admin authority I poked around all the settings a little and set up The Dudeku Book board in the Limber Mind Library. Have at it and let me know if you would like me to add a description to the board.
Oh, and forumdude, if you have any objections please let me know and I will remove the new board.
Nah, fuck it Dude - gone off the idea, now.
Just kidding, Dude - cheers, kudos to your admin fingers; does this mean that you can delete spammers - is DB's plan going into operation (first post to be reviewed)?
SUPER!!! Yes, I think the first post should be a description as well as suggestions for topics so we can start those subheadings. Thanks for getting the ball rolling!

Yeah, now I can open up a world of pain on any spammers ass!
And dude...I brought the subject of digitalbuddha being a membership moderator like we discussed, but the Dudely Lama didn't make a reply yet. Not sure if this type of forum will allow that action. But as the forumdude mentioned there are a few things on this version of the forum that needs fixing. I poked around a little but it warns that unless you really know what your doing not to go any further.
That sounded like a good idea as I didn't want to hit the wrong button and delete the whole forum!
This is definitely a job for rev Meekon5.

I did not know that, Dude - just tried it but it remains the same; I reckon we'll stay with Dude-penned haikus. ;)

I thought it was broken too till I signed in then it worked for me. But you're right, we should still do it manually.
More meaningful.
Some really sad shit
A friend is dead suicide
And it's not painless
:(
So sorry Ceasar Dude. I lost my best friend this way 17 years ago and had for many years struggled with the notion myself. If there's anything at all I can do, send me a message and I will give you my email or yahoo name. This is very tough and you shouldn't deal with it alone.
