LIVE FROM CHEYENNE,WY. "The Forgeters!" (Haiku) by horus8 And the crowd goes wild
But the stage remains vacant
They forgot to show
But wait, what is this?
They repel down from blimp, then
forget how to play
John, remarks to Joe,
"Let's get fucking lost, and
forget we saw that."
Up the ladder:
Descent into Madness
Down the ladder:
In the Vicinity of Dreams

"Traditionally, poems in the form called haiku are
characterized by seventeen sylable broken into three
lines with five, seven, and five syllable
respectively. Each haiku includes language that
appeals to two of the five senses - sight, hearing,
smell, touch, and taste, or the additional sense of
movement."

Thanks for the tip, but I'm aware of more than just one style of writing haikus, vilanelles, sestinas, lyrics, odes and limericks, concrete, dada, and many others, but I appreciate the information none the less, thank you.
