Default Re: Post your Dom3 Haiku

wow i like that one, moderation.

almost a perfect haiku too, 5-7-5ish; and the syllabuls don't matter much, given the loose relevance of them in translation from japanese to english formats. the important thing is beat, which that one captures fine.

and the substance, so wonderful. i can totally relate. i guess... if i imagine myself a wizard (graduate student) pouring over a grimour, late at night, (stacks of books and countless PDF's of articles), looking for the perfect spell (theory, or argument, or way to frame a concept). and it just suddenly _appears_ (that moment of clarity, or is it a delusion? who cares, it feels like a spell appearing).

personal meaning or not, its a good haiku capturing a classic image.
