blues (Haiku) by <~>
tropical seas teem: paradise awash, they seem and then you blink

Up the ladder: BITTER AND TWISTED
Down the ladder: Vulgar peoples

IS this about how beautiful things appear until you take a closer look at them and your overwhelmed? or have i made a prat of myself? If not it is how it could be interpreted, my bro scitz agrees.

I thought that you need 17 syllables in a haiku. Or am I being stupid? Can you have less?

depends, really. some people say one thing, and others another. as such, yes and no, no and yes, and whatever. :)

some say that anything written in english can't be haiku. all the rest of the arguments stem from that, to some extent or another.
