Sherlock Haikus!

I love writing Haikus, so I figured I would write some Sherlock ones for fun.

(Haikus are Japanese poems which have 5 syllables on the first line, 7 syllables on the second line and 5 syllables on the last line)

Not all of the ones I have written follow this structure exactly, but most do.


Plays the violin
High functioning sociopath
Severed head in fridge

Ex military doc.
Miss the battlefield so much
Getting an ASBO

It is a drugs bust.
But they are just for my hip;
They're herbal soothers!

Go to a pool and
Moriarty says hello
Rip John's clothes off fast

Get a human head
Decide to scare Watson so
Put it in the fridge

Open up a cab
See a Californian
"Welcome to London!"

You'll do anything
Anything at all
To stop being bored

"Mrs Hudson, dinner."
"Not your housekeeper Sherlock!"
"Something cold will do."

Go to restaurant
Chase a cab around London
Leave walking stick there

Created a job
A consulting detective
Then married his work

Meet Moriarty
Pretends to be very gay
Leaves his phone number

Inspector Lestrade
Desperate for Sherlock's help
Needs lots more screen time

Go to Mortuary
Hit corpse with a riding crop
Forget riding crop

Text a whole press room
Send them only one word- wrong
How does he do that?

Sherlock and Mycroft
Childish feud separates them
Has upset mummy

Earth goes round the sun
But Sherlock doesn't know it:
"I deleted it."


Hope you liked them! I'm thinking about writing more if people like them so please review! I will soon be posting Doctor Who and Merlin ones as well. :D
