Tell me more, tell me more A haiku's something I don't know. A 5-7-5 or so?

This might be way off. Criticism welcome. I'm trying to figure it out..... though haven't had a lot of time to think about it. With kids.........!

Or even six-eight-six (or some other variation) if done right. The syllable count is the least of it. Very few (not I) can do it well, though.

Your name is fun to say.

Yes and I can speak Chinese, see: "Ching chang wongtong longshlong."
Just research Haikus on Google search and come to your own conclusion.

This is a meta-ku if anything.

Nice. A good commentary on the limitations of haiku-length.
