Did you see my previous post in this thread? If not...uncanny.

😛 Of course I saw it. That's what I modeled my haiku after, silly! 😀
 
I became a jar of wind,
Holding myself forever it seemed . . .
A sudden gush as it rushed forth
brought joy to my innerself
and the room was quiet.
 
This is based on Arthur C. Clarke's "2001: A Space Odyssey":

ASCENT TO TRANSCENDENCE

On ancient lands of mother Earth,
The mighty lizard realm declined,
And Nature, eager for rebirth,
Foresaw the coming of mankind.

The man-apes of the barren plains
Were greeted by a slab of stone.
It planted murder in their veins;
Mankind ascended to his throne.

Emerging from the Earth's cocoon,
The atom bore man into space.
He found a mon'lith on the moon:
A relic of an alien race.

Mankind set foot upon the soil,
And gazed past Jupiter and Mars.
He shuffled off his mortal coil,
And took his place among the stars.

Note to self - a haiku

Mistaken was the
click that lead me here. Such a
waste. Never again.



Thread Trolls.
If it dont interest you. Dont post.



My haiku wasn't necessarily directed towards you. Your post actually has value, which is lacking in about 98% of the threads posted here these days. Maybe you just looked at my poem and saw your own n00biness staring back? 😛

what are the rules of a haiku? something about a limited number of syllables?
