    your heart betrays you!
    can't you see, he loves you not!
    he's only a friend.

    When asked how World War III would be fought, Einstein replied that he didn't know. But he knew how World War IV would be fought: With sticks and stones.

    ummmm, maz, lighten up -- technically speaking, in the 'real' haiku world, they do not allow for contractions either (isn't, didn't, it'll, aren't, and so on) which we have all used here at one time or another... Have fun people (just stay with the 5-7-5 rhythm and its all good!)


    Bad and the ugly
    creating unwanted scenes
    lets scrap this movie
    Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty

    Right on, and consider that some great writers who wrote haiku--e.g. Jack Kerouac's Book of Haiku---didn't even follow the 5-7-5 form because they thought it was creatively constraining.

    forest, under stars
    stars rest like books in bookshelves,
    forest tends to love
    "He was nauseous with regret when he saw her face again, and when, as of yore, he pleaded and begged at her knees for the joy of her being. She understood Neal; she stroked his hair; she knew he was mad."

    forest under stars
    light up their green and wait... for
    the next howl to come.
    ....
    .
    ...the smell of flowers through metal labyrinths.

    too slow.

    Forest tends to love.
    The clouds give. We but recieve.
    And recieve thereby.

    I mix the clouds in red wine
    and declare sweetness.

    and declare sweetness
    to linger in skies, tumbling
    clouds shifting when viewed
    and somehow a dog
    has taken itself & its tail considerably away
    into the mountains or sea or sky, leaving
    behind: me, wag.

    clouds shifting when viewed
    look like monsters hastening
    to fall on some patch
