Star Trek I-X Haiku

This has probably been done before, but I thought it would be fun. Write a haiku about one or or some or all of the first ten Trek films, or about all ten in summation.

You know the rules:
Line 1. - 5 syllables
Line 2. - 7 syllables
Line 3. - 5 syllables


I did haiku for each of the films.


The Motion Picture:
two point five years pass
Things change. A new threat comes forth
Business as always.


The Wrath of Khan:
Kirk and company
Fifteen years and a Khan's wrath
Old friend dies. New world.


The Search for Spock:
death and sacrifice
Secrets sought. Klingons pay price.
An old friend returns.


The Voyage Home:
Look to the days past
To save Earth of the future
Whales hold the answer


The Final Frontier:
A Vulcan upstart!
Why does God need a starship?!
Sha Ka Ree, a trap!

The Undiscovered Country:
Praxis mined. A great blast.
Klingon Warriors seek peace.
Not all are willing.

Generations:
The Nexus misused.
Two captains must save the day.
Kirk says: "Sounds like fun."

First Contact:
A Borg Queen declares:
"Picard, watch your future's end!"
Vulcans make the reach

Insurrection:
Tribes fell apart.
One stays young. *One cursed to rot.
Starfleet cashes in?

Nemesis:
Another Picard?
The new one has rage issues.
Data is scrap heap.




Anyone else? :)
 
@ Martok: very nice. I´m not a poet. Maybe you have experience in writing lyrics/songs whatsoever? You have to wait for another great mind.
 
First Contact:

The Borg leap through time
The Enterprise tags along
Say hi to Zefram

But I like this version better:
Borg leaping through time
Enterprise and crew follow
Zefram requires help


(I like your creative contributions with this post and what you have started, martok!)

Most kind, Robert, thank you. :)
And I liked both of your First Contact haikus. Thanks for contributing to the thread. :)
 
@ Martok: I´m trying to get the hang of it. Could you add a genaral Haiku thread anywhere? You should include not only the movies, but also the series as well....

I´m currently working on a Martok haiku.......
