no haiku for me
my image stays in its box
too soon to despair

My average falters now
Redemption is not at hand
No Haiku is here

I'm not done yet.

And don't freak out if it's not 5-7-5. It's still a haiku.

I'm really not sure what a Haiku really is. Even after reading several articles on it. I suppose once I know the answer, I will have attained Zen.

haiku is lost in translation. It's a Japanese form and its prosody (formal rules) don't translate to our language. Add to that a subversive spirit in contemporary poetry that likes to claim forms without using their rules, and there you have it: a beautiful chaos.

Still waiting on my Haiku. Don. And I could use a 7, or even an 8...

I'd like a haiku, please. I'm not completely sure what it is either, but if it means a good score comes with it, I'd like one.

I don't know that I've ever gotten a posthumous comment, sniffle sniffle. I'm such an outcast.

In that case you are one of the crowd. The crowd that hangs out under the low scoring rock. Your turn to bring the pizza.

Um, Steve.....

Sandy's idea of a low score, and ours......differ....8>)
