Here is some Xena haiku--it's sort of divided into categories.
It doesn't take long to read, or comment. Thanks!
...Callisto...
Blonde and built to last
Born in fire and much woe
Violence is her path
...Gabrielle as Bard...
To tell a good tale
To eat a good filling lunch
From dinars you've earned
...Red Shirts...
They come for an ep
And die just as they find love
So short, so fleeting.
...Gabrielle's Spiritual Quest...
Love as your weapon
At best an odd decision
Will it protect you?
...Chin - The Debt...
A journey far
To repay a good mentor
To touch soft water
...Xena the Beautiful...
I.
Stand tall in the wind
High cliffs or beaches of sand
Your nature-beauty.
II.
Skin, eyes, and figure
Can carry you to success
If used properly.
...Xena the Hero...
Transformation came
Hercules freed the cocoon
Long-spun by Lao Ma
...Evil Xena...
I.
Backgrounded in flames
With her sword she would rule Greece
Without enemies.
II.
She would forge a truce
Stepping on enemy heads
Kill to clear her path.
...Xena's Eyes...
The cast of vision
Their future snowy with death
As blue as her eyes.
...Friendship...
A girl and a woman
Both beginning in their life
Now travel as one.
...Xena...
Atop the bone-hill
A giant's gruesome graveyard
Stands Warrior Princess.
...Amazons...
Strength if it is had
Is best among friends
Who travel by tree.
...Chakram...
Spinner, spinner bright
You twirl with the world's axis
Doing her bidding.
...India - Devils...
Devis and Demons
Other Xenas, other lives
Lay ahead of you
...The Gods...
To Ancient Greeks there
Is no "it" in rains
Chance is from the gods
...Joxer - Love him...
Joxer the Mighty
Has written his own opera
Pre-Pavarotti
...Joxer - Hate him...
Stupid stupid schlep
Carries a torch for someone
She cannot bear him.
...Supporting Characters...
I.
Who knows the Black Wolf?
Who's afraid of the Black Wolf?
Not those who follow.
II.
Devi-Avatar
Eli, who is your people?
He is familiar.
...Subtext...
The surface is calm
Feelings submerged below
The rock in the stream
...Villains...
My Lord Sinteres
Philosopher Assassin
His voice is wisdom

Naturally, Xena and all characters on Xena belong to Ren Pics, but I enjoyed them while they lasted.
