Or he's trying for the original Japanese "on" defenitions, but it doesn't add up either unless you change the numbers required in each part. :?

I fell half asleep reading that shit on Wiki'.

Yes, you are. That last line was almost worthy of Bassho! ;)

(He supposedly once wrote a haiku on the famed islands of Matsushima that goes

Matsushima ya
Aa Matsushima ya
Matsushima ya


"It's Matsushima!
Ah...it's Matsushima!
It's Matsushima!"

Maybe, actually, you're doing better? :D )

Yep. Nice one. :)

We must pay more attention to Kevin in these...he'll feel left out otherwise. ;)

Frankly I have no idea what the big attraction of haiku is, I find the form dull and listless.
And the really good poetry has to rhyme IMO, call me old fashioned.

Now if GRRM had given a more complete version of it, I might've written The Slig and The Combover Pig here.

Old-fashioned or...of simpler tastes? :wink:

Huh? You seem to forget where I am.

Actually, Bint was in a domestic mood this morning and made a Japanese-style breakfast: fried salmon (good call!) and a poached egg, miso shiru and rice with some pickles and a bit of salad on the side. YUM! :P

(The only French I eat is lunch at the little place near work. I think Teg will verify that they are anything but pretentious. ;) )
