Orks Bashing 'umies
Old Zogwort has got the winds
Back blast area?

Shiny Space Marines
Grinding Xenos into paste
Best Armor Polish!

Dinosaurs or Bugs?
Bugosaurs? You betcha dude!
Tyranids suck ballz.

An Eldar Army.
All style and no substance...
Tits on a boar hog.

My Necrons phase out.
Who's idea was that bull

?
The anti-Matt Ward?

Dark Eldar are bad.
Bad like a broken condom!
...like ex-wife evil !!!

Tau gun-line army?
Or all kroot, I can't decide.
Those are the choices. :(

Sisters of Battle
I can barely say their name,
Inside this haiku.

Grey Knights? Shiny Cheese!
Broken like an old record.
Fight them? Nope. Jog on!

Imperial Guard!
Thems just hor dourves with flashlights...
But, OH GOD THE TANKS!

**Coolyo294**

We are SPESS MAHREENS
Dropping down like steel rain
We are SPESS MAHREENS

Guard once were rubbish
Now everyone loves them
Like your mum, last night

Hahahahahahahaha!

**Azure**

The Death Korps of Krieg
We tolerate no failure
Service until death!

Fear, the Nightbringer
The face of death to all life
The Reaper of C'tan

Hail, the Deciever
The lord of tricks and falsehoods
One to fool them all

**Cadorius**

Inquisitor here.
Claim heretic ran that way.
He's not buying it.

**Connor McKane**

Tervigon spawns 'gants
Pooping out living guns, proves...
Tyranids ARE crap.

**Fairfeldia**

i am sly marbo
i am death
fear me chaos

**Gorskar.da.Lost**

The Despoiler's hordes
The greatest of the Black Crusades
Slaughter without end

**steeds of war**

Can we do limericks to?

**Grey Templar**

Have much fear,

the Ordo Hereticus is here,

to purge the unclean,

with Hellfire and Oxine,

you cannot defeat the likes of us,

if you do we will declare Exterminatus!!!!

**Connor McKane**

There once was a guardsman named Moe
Who just might have shot off his own toe
To get shipped back home early
And bang his wife Shirley,
Too bad she's with the neighbor named Joe.

**Samus_aran115**

Endless space marines...
Marines of every color...
red,blue, green, black, grey...

Fists of rogal dorn
Loyal slaves to their own doctrine
Nobel Warriors

**Connor McKane**

Commisar looks pissed
Someone hand me my boot black
And FIRE AT WILL!!!

**Belexar**

A little something for my IG fluff:

Blue Rogues, hit and run!
Knights on our heels, Knights on our sights,
But still beats the guard!

**Samus_aran115**

Gatgatgatgatgat
This autogun is crappy
Get me a lasgun

**Belexar**

To an Ogryn with a thing for hunting Tyranids:

Hodor sure likes the guard
Mowing 'Nids with da rippa gun
Smashin' bugs from night to dawn

And yes, I named him after a Song of Ice and Fire character. Sue me.

**Connor McKane**

Crap, my tau got charged
Lost Initiative again,
Whats good on TV?

**purplefood**

My CRASSUS ASSAULTS
Flee now, your fate is sealed
My CRASSUS ASSAULTS

**Saintspirit**

Sadism, masochism
Enjoying the torture much
That's Dark Eldar for you

**Omegus**

These are not haikus
Please try harder my good friends
To not suck so much

**Grey Templar**

Haikus suck, we want real poetry

**DeadlySquirrel**

Poetry isn't poetry unless it rhymes. Nuff said.

**Saintspirit**

What would Grey Templar be called if he wore worn out clothes?

Fray Templar.

What would Kilkrazy be called if he was always mad?

Stillkrazy.

What would Gorechild be called if he was raised by hogs?

Boarchild.

Correct on a technical level, but the Poetry people are most familier with, and are most able to write on the spot, rhymes.

Forgive those of us who can only write poetry that rhymes.

and I think he was being funny on top of everything.

That's called a joke genius.

**DeadlySquirrel**

I studied English Literature. I read all the BS poems that didnt ryhme. They were essentially prose.

Its only "new" poems that don't rhyme. Look at all the 19th and 19th centuary poems. They all ryhmed. All of them. Because the law of poetry is that it rhymes.

All the new poems from people like Carol Anne Duffy are terrible... because they don't rhyme.

It wasn't written as a joke, and even if it is, I'm not sure why you feel the need to insult me.

Bad poetry is still poetry.
