Proposing 100% haiku mandate for SF

Pimp up, ho's are down
regardless of where you cruise
I am the kingpin

A mirror, haiku.
Not showing what is ahead,
only what is past.

 

[j]

Battles, syllables
Damage done invisbly
They're breakdance fighting

 

[seanchai]

throwdown like old school;
i think samurai did this
after they banned swords

 

[Tyto]

With Spring comes finals.
Constitutional Law, why
must you torment me?

With Marbury came
judicial review,
but see now what it has wrought . . .

In haiku you can write
One syllable more or less
In one line only.

In one line only
You can cheat the syllable count
By one more or less.

In proper haiku
Cheating the syllables
Is acceptable.

Thus endeth the lesson
About cheating syllables
When writing haiku.

 

[j]

Counting syllables
For accuracy's sake*
Ruins the reading

(*the drink)

king of sense/non-sense

In proper haiku
can cheating syllables
wander from line to line?

Or is that a dumb
gaijin trick that will earn him
shame and dishonor?

Now get over it.

Ok, ok, I have succumbed to the new SF trend. Forgive any mistakes with syllables, I never really had much extensive formal education in English so I am unclear on certain syllable structures

Like Basho's sons, in flannel they type; Sounds of keys

Edit: diorshoe: lol Hmm, it is probably too warm for you up in the colder areas for flannel. And it is spring, wrong season. Ack.

In one line only
Never in two; that's just dumb
Any line will do.
