Many clumsy words
bashed crudely into verses
gulag for badgers

I had many Ba'als
And put them into magical halls
but they even ate the rune-adorned walls

Tried to make a Turkish faction
Didn't have the original copy
Cast wish for "digital download"

*****

Sort of Jomonese poetry
Becomes addictive and is easy
Even for non-English speakers it is so easy

JaghataiKhan,

yours were funny and nice but remember, Haikus are 5-7-5 syllabes ;) For other kinds of poetry (and free poetry as well) I suggest you this other thread. Best wishes ^^

as someone who is actually familiar with the Japanese culture in general and in Haikus specifically I must say I'm deeply saddened by this thread. there is a huge misconception here it seems of what Haikus really are. Haikus are not just about the 5-7-5 structure, they're about minimalistic language, minimalistic esthetics(beauty) Wabi-Sabi in Japanese, and much more, but I don't want to confuse you guys too much...

also, even if you just go by the structure, without the "soul" of Haikus, than at least add the season element(not the actual season name but a clear yet minimalistic reference to a season), which is as crucial to the Haiku structure as the 5-7-5 format.

Head turns, solar flare
Dry air stirs, passionate heat
Seduce Rakshasi

This ain't a haiku
According to Blackguard-san
Unless I say "Spring"
