A Steelers vs. Colts Recap Haiku
We here at Steelers Today are not just fans of football. We’re also fans of poetry. Yes, like true renaissance men, we can show our artsy-fartsy side. So, this week’s post-game report is being done in the form of a commemorative haiku.
For the uneducated Cleveland Browns fans among our readers, we should probably explain that a haiku is a form of Japanese poetry that contains only 3 lines. The first line has five (5) syllables, the second line has seven (7) syllables, and the last line has five (5) syllables. Typically, haiku do not rhyme.
To summarize the Steelers’ 24-20 loss to the Indianapolis Colts, here is our Steelers-Colts haiku:
Stout stands the defense
Big Ben throws interceptions
Steelers lose the game.
We invite our readers to submit their own Steelers haiku. Just hit the comment button below, and let the poetry flow. You too can haiku.

Hello! welcome to my blog.
Defense is solid

Very good, Ken. I see that you have a black belt in haiku.
Just throw it away!
Holmes should’ve bat the first one down
Picks are nails in coffin
(minus points for using a contraction?)
Good try Ken. However, haiku is based on syllables, not words. So you have to have seven syllables in line #2. Yours has 8. In line #3, you have 6 syllables instead of 5.
Care to try again?
BIG BEN throws three picks
BIG BEN must process “D” schemes
BIG BEN blows the game
