We've waited a while.

Nothing much has happened yet

So on with the game.

"So on with the games,"
said the emporer aloud,
"Bring on the lions!"

Bring on the lions,
Close all the doors,
Bring in the christians,
On all fours.

Mathos! What have we here? IS it a haiku? Well, I can work with it, ahem:

Christians on all fours
awaiting their punishment ...
but, saved at the last!

Mathos-

Try to learn the rules old chap.Blurting the first thing that comes into your head is considered considerably naff on here and with devvie watching
it's ridiculous.

But saved at the last

The bridegroom said to his Mum.

And the bride just smiled.(if smiled is 2 then-and the bride smiled.)

(smi-led?!) I thought I was being magnanimous, Spendi-!

And the bride just smiled ...
She wanted to marry the
"best" man anyway.

Best man, any way
I can find him - where the hell
has he gone to now?

<that 'hey, wait' from this morning was about what apparently is called pipping, which is when one person answers just before another, thus winning the turn to do a Haiku...>

to pick at dolt dots
is the favorite hobby
of dot-loving spots

rigatoni now.

Spend it in Florence.

But Florence is so costly,

Otherwise I might.
