Helen of Annoy Posted April 20, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 20, 2017 So, Jak had this ingenious idea that we start a new haiku thread. Unlike (un)holy haiku, where we agreed to stick to strict 5-7-5 syllables rule, and always start new haiku with the last line from the haiku above, here we would like to make it totally free. No strict rules, just make it short, in haiku spirit, and if possible linked to the previous haiku in the sense of being inspired with it. The reason why we put this thread into Fun&Games instead of Writers' Hangout is because we would like to keep the humorous and playful atmosphere. So, let me have the honour of starting with this one: hopes, like butterflies beautiful even when they're dead if not too squashed their dust on cruel hands horrible like blood 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=Jak= Posted April 20, 2017 #2 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Horrible like blood Science found even caste in it, who negative and who positive hope the next poster put my point in strict 5 7 5. Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarMountainKid Posted April 20, 2017 #3 Share Posted April 20, 2017 I can't do 5 - 7 - 5. Anyway isn't that rule for Japanese language? So maybe skip this one. Who negative and who positive Frog and nightingale sing No difference 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just putting their free writing in systematic haiku syllables If you wish, we can make it that way too. I'll start another thread, we can call it 'training wheels haiku' and leave this thread completely free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
