So I went and hurt
My fingers when counting the
The syllables, friends

So I retire
To the Dreamland of now and
Then we shall see, yes

Blurry eye, fuzzy brain
Birds chat up willow
Good morning, Solstis

[TalHex]

with tired eyes, i sit
typing this haiku
staving off blackness

[Solstis]

The 5 - 7 - 5 rule, by the way, is a little stupid and (I believe) has been contested.

The problem is that Haiku form originates in a completely different language with completely different rules than English (yeah, completely different, you wanna start somethin'?)

Nihon shu.

Drink it!

Completely different implies that there are no such things as nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc.

If you can find such a language, you should go look for the Grail next.

[TalHex]

actually its a maximum of 5 then a maximum of 7 then a maximum of 5 again

[Anduril]

I refuse this time.
I shan't write in Haiku form.
Oh, crap not again.... -_-

I laughed, I cried.


And, thank you, Solstis. That's one of my pet peeves.

I like 5 - 7 - 5 because of the limitation, but I think I might start going for a sexy 6 - 9 - 6.
