More Gintama haiku - Sakamoto Day!

[rainsometimes]

Following up on my earlier post with Gintama haiku, I've written a few more now! These ones are all focused around Tatsuma Sakamoto, as it's his birthday today (November 15).

Like in the earlier post, all are written towards one character from the POV of another, but not always with words they'd be able to say out loud.


First, a repeat of three haiku that were in the previous post!

Gintoki's POV to Sakamoto
That stupid laughter,
Ringing through the galaxy:
Our hope and our pride.


Mutsu's POV to Sakamoto
If you're dumb, I'm worse;
Since I stay here just to see
The world through your eyes.


Sakamoto's POV to Gintoki-Katsura-Takasugi
It’s fine to look dumb,
If I can run wild once more
With all of you guys.


Now, on to the new!


Sakamoto to Mutsu, take one

This noisy pebble,
Can keep laughin' and rollin',
Because he has you.


Sakamoto to Mutsu, take two

Hey, don't look so glum!
We'll find a bright new venture,
Glittering out there.


Sakamoto to Mutsu, take three

Trees sure are fine here.
Come watch them in bloom with me!
PS: please bring bail.


Sakamoto to Gintoki, take one

The night is still young!
Let's go conquer all the bars,
With you, I feel strong!


Sakamoto to Gintoki, take two

There's enough burdens,
Weighin' you down after all.
I'll laugh, and be light.

Katsura to Sakamoto

Come down here more often;
I want to see your dumb face,
To scold and fuss at.

Sakamoto to Katsura (irregular, the last line's too long)

Zura, I feel like
Ruffling that long hair of yours.
Bein' scolded is fine.


Young wartime Takasugi to Sakamoto

I don't do sharing;
You barge in among us three --
And can't be disliked!!


Takasugi in his most villainous period to Sakamoto

You, I just avoid;
Too much ceaseless, bouncing hope -
Go shine somewhere else.


Finally, Sakamoto to Takasugi

Guess the sea of space
Can't soothe that burnin' fire.
But I'll try, I'll try!!
