DarkWolf Posted March 1, 2003 Doesn't it have to deal with nature to technically be a haiku? Please, enlighten our ignorance... 0 Share this post Link to post

It can be humorous. But I don't think there can be haiku about doom. Haiku, btw, are split into two images and don't contain explicit emotions. 0 Share this post Link to post
Sharessa Posted March 1, 2003 Heh...what about Tanka? (I think I spelled that right). They're supposed to be like responses to Haiku or something, but I forget the details. 0 Share this post Link to post
