Haiku

Sadly I must go.
Need to find an impromptu
meal for my walrus.

Then I'm off to school
for a dull meeting about
college cost info.

I do not understand and refuse to google.
I hate that which I do not understand.
I must now burn you all.
I need to find lots and lots of matches.
Send memo to everybody, "match shortage in UK, please send lots"

This will be a big'un, should probably use France to do it in.

Abound within this thread here.
You have no excuse.

English haiku is
based on five, seven and five
syllables, that's true

However, many
bilingual poets changed to
three, five, three instead

The reason being
Jap Haiku use seventeen
syllables you see

Using three, five, three
in English haiku would be
the equivalent

So I will
only write haiku
three, five, three

By the way
I just had me a
deja'vu

As if I
have written this down
already

I must ask
you people if this
could be so?
