Last week I challenged you to write a Klonoa-themed haiku to win yourself a copy of the floppy-eared catsit's latest Wii adventure, Door to Phantomile. And write them you did. I guess.
After poring over every last entry, I decree the winner shall be langdon_alger, to whom one shiny new copy of the game shall be mailed. He (or she) won the day with this softly plaintive cry.
gentle breezes blow
tumbleweeds past my wii-mote
can this game change that?
I have to make a few honorable mentions here as well. These guys all went for the funny.
Haikus are easy
But they don't always make sense
Refrigerator.
I found a wind ring.
A magic bubble came out.
What was I smoking?
Ears won't stop flapping.
Riding dirty with a ring.

Pulling no punches, this pair tells it like it is.
Oh, poor Nintendo.
Have a Wii? Get Klonoa.
What else? Pft. Beats me!

The voices teach us nothing

My feet never go sideways,
I long to feel grass.

It appears that you
can do more than one Haiku
So I made a bunch

No more talking like Star Fox
Worst part of the game
Is Rorschachs journal

Reminds of Tomba
They see me rollin'
This hat makes me gangster, yo!
Sonic aint got shit
War has now changed
When you kill to get higher
War becomes routine
popularity
leads to more intimacy
and so does this ring
I just found this ring
a blue thing came out of it
It was delicious
He is a menace
He grabs innocent people
and throws them at stuff
