Haikus are teh gay
They don't sound much like poems
I don't see the point

lol seriously though I'm not trying to crap on your thread but am I the only one who's never seen any artistry in haikus?
 
probably not. I didnt understand them until i started reading fiction novels based on feudal japan, but they are pretty cool once you get the idea from them
 
I think I can see how they would work in Japanese since their words/characters are constructed out of consonant-syllable pairs, which seems like it gives more of a balance to each phrase. But English phrases are very irregular.
 
Jeez... the point was to have some fun... on the pilot board I am on, the haiku thread made 100s of pages... hah..
 
We've had various haiku threads on the forum (do a search). I know the Georgia section one was pretty prolific.

Haikus are subtle
They take some getting used to
Haikus an art form
 
i dont feel like that a dumb question, in fact i forgot about that.

Can someone let newbies know how to form a haiku?
