<Rant Alert>
People who think they've written a haiku but can't even get the 5/7/5 format right should be hacked into 17 "syllables" by a posse of enraged samurais.
Not to mention that anyone who shoves 3 "haikus" into one "pome" doesn't even begin to understand, let alone follow, the spare and disciplined artistic sensibility that is haiku.
Rather, they are following the yahoo 'Murican tradition of "If
some is good, then unthinking wretched excess must be better," as epitomized by the idiot cry of "MOAR SUGAR!" or "EXTRA CHEESE ON
EVERYTHING!"
Need an example, class? 1950's American automobiles, where the idea was, "Good start, Gunderson. Now let's tack on GIANT, non-functional fins and tons of extra chrome. Don't forget the chrome spinner hubcaps and extra wide whitewalls!"
Not getting the point? Well, then, here's a Zen koan for you:
"How many haikus are there in a three haiku poem?"
"None, cowboy, none. Now, top off my saki and bring me my bento box on your knees, 蕃人."

Note: No Manahans were actually harmed during this production, as overseen by the ASPCBM. He's actually
worth ranting about, which is a geezer curmudgeon's highest praise. ()
