/haiku/

Yea Forums is a shit board
but other sites are still worse
mogami river

in dead of winter
cherry blossoms ignite the
imagination

It's not merely a shallow education, it's a miseducation. It leaves people thinking that:

kek kek kek kek kek
kek kek kek kek kek kek kek
kek kek kek kek kek

has just as much right to be called haiku as any work of the traditional masters. That simply isn't true.

so write one and show us how it's done

I've been writing haiku for years and I majored in Asian studies
I grasped my lady's
Hand, and her insistence that
I not broke my heart

Falling deep into this well
The moon
over my head

...

I'll bite. I'm not claiming that this is a masterpiece, but it's closer to the true spirit of haiku than anything in this thread (sorry for my autistic irritability):

The seagull settles
On the sunburnt pavement.
Slam the breaks!

*brakes
fuck am I dumb

Good attempt but I'd like to change it a bit
The seagull lays down
On the flaming asphalt
And I'm so weary

The Cheeto Puff Man

Family sized bag
One bag for only one boy
So much pain inside

The Cheeto Puff Man
That is my name now I say
The bag is now gone

I am a monster
Each thing I touch turns cheesy
Someone help me please

Help me help me help
I know how it all will end
I must touch myself

Things are better now
Six months since the disaster
Now I cannot harm

Here's another

The wind raped my senses
Into a literal nothing
And I'm positively flushèd

yeah, none of these were as good as mine

but that technically is a haiku you retard. i could take a shit on a canvas, call it abstract art, and it's still abstract art

Come, come, my sweet, Therese,
And, with heart, give me hell,
That I, in some way, may climb

It's not evocative enough

In the corpse of winter
blossoms of cherry engulf
my pensiveness

cringe

What's funny about it

Oh, sweet,
Give me my necesseties
That we may come to some halt

you just took a decent haiku and made it sound try-hard as fuck

Why did you delete your post LOL

I am not a man
in that I do not keep a
head on my neck, oh

How?

La espoja en mi mar
she sang with sweet silences
So sad and softly

Oh, I like that. You have the leisurely activity of the seagull subtly "mirroring" the speaker's weariness, and the "flaming" asphalt both embellishes and contrasts with the feeling of the rest of the piece (the weariness that comes with a hot day, and the "warmth" of the flames against the "coolness" of the seagull image and the speaker's comment). I'd say this is skillfully done, user, and that your skills surpass my own. If there is a "however," it's that my poem was an attempt to capture an actual experience I had, and your version is, well, a different poem from what I am trying to capture. There really was a seagull settling down in the middle of the road right in front of my car on a hot day, and I really was startled by it and stopped until it chose to fly away. Luckily, there weren't other cars around. It was one of the precious little moments in life that haiku is better at expressing than any other form, and I would really like to capture the beauty of that experience as strongly and sincerely as I can.

I didn't green text it correctly

you're just demonstrating the point
you know less than the Wikipedia page, yet you think you know what you're talking about

Ok but yours was just really bad honestly. Haiku are meant to make you feel

Leave me alone!
I said on that hot day
With the storm raping me

well yours just make us cringe.

but I guess that counts, eh?

>poetry is meant to evoke emotion

you don't say

Yet another time
The same old thread, so boring
OP is a fag

Can you do it better? Let's write one about birth

The fetus was a baby
and it came out of her womb
With blood and other substances

no

And it seems like you all fail at that

Failure
is not called failure
Without a death of some sort

That user made it much better. Their version is more creative, actually stirs the imagination like the poem describes, and has a much stronger sense of atmosphere. It FEELS pensive and imaginative, where the original just states it..

I'm trying to express the simple beauty of a seagull sitting in the road, and my surprise and panic when I almost fucking killed it with my car. I was going for a contrast between the stillness and serenity of the seagull and my own excitement and panic. I think it's a funny situation, too. I might suck at this, but I am trying to express genuine emotion.

>the fetus was a baby

sorry, but I'd feel bad about competing with a an anglo self-proclaimed haiku expert. typically I try to be nice to mentally challenged, not rub their deficiencies in their faces.

oh yea? well come here
let me poop on your chest and
spank your ass a bit

You got the chops you just gotta follow my lead. I've been taught by actual haikuists.
Explain why that's wrong

Call me Ishmael
or call me what-you-will
but do not call me out

Contrast and surprise are key elements in haiku. The original version lacks those qualities. user's fix, well, fixes it.

in dead of winter is the atmosphere, you dimwit. the stillness. the silence. the cold.

and then a flash of color and explosion

and then you realize it is all in the mind.

that the silence and the stillness prevails.

his "improved-upon" version distracts you with a try hard word "corpse", which RUINS the atmosphere. now you see a corpse and feel nothing. and that destroys the rest of the haiku. it has no where to return because it had no atmosphere from the beginning.

As if yours made any sense to begin with but I can work with it. And why do you keep deleting your posts?
Thank you

Snow falling on my neck

jesus christ this is why you don't argue with a white haiku expert. I knew I should have just posted and moved on.

>look at all the contrast, that juxtaposition, that surprise. that's not what haiku is about. hurr hurr.

your mother gave head

Roommate
Left my Oven on again when I had Asked him not too

What if I change the last line to "My tires shriek."? It's not perfect, as its very close to the cliché of screeching tires, but I wonder if it might at least be closer to the right direction than the closing line I originally posted. Maybe "my tires sing," or something like that. It's further from the cliché, and maybe even subverts it. If I have the tires "sing," the reader understands what is meant, since it's close to a common expression, but it adds the sense that my slamming on the breaks is part of beauty of the moment. My only worry is that it has a bit less energy than the original iteration. What do you think?

Hah! Clever jokester
My mother bought me no shoes
Born without any feet

will you please insert
your stubby little leggies
into my rectum?

I would say My wheels scream and shout at the bird
But that is what it's about

Death and winter are strongly associated; if you understand this, the expression in the poem makes perfect sense.

only one can fit
two might be pushing it, no?
oh well, here we go!

Moon against milky away
Stars shining with divine light
Don't come to school later

What's this? Actual discussion about literary merit on MY Yea Forums? Bless you all.

I will take it into consideration. I'll probably keep fiddling with this poem; I might post an update somewhere on here at some point.

Wow, user! Impressively, this is subtly reminiscent of one of the genre's most iconic poems. I am speaking, of course, of the following piece by Barbara Ungar:

rain drums
the watering can
now now now now now

You were inadvertently participating in the great haiku tradition of using the sound of water to add action and life to a still image. Note you can almost hear the rain in Barbara's "now now now now now".

there it is, folks. we can all go home.

The seagull seems stuck

Oh, well: squish, squash, splat!

Bit a haiku but I found this on my phone after a blackout

I don't ever write poems

Oh peachy girl

Fill me with love
Fill me with hate
Fill me with want
Wash away my face

My heart shakes
My vision blurs
My sanity slips
Alas I'm gone

Oh peachy girl
What a heavenly hellishly wonderful mistake
Fell the tree of my core
Forever no more but forever more?!

A tornado spins
A bat flies
A man fucks

Lights light
Darks dark
Loves hate

No skills
No passion
But desire plenty

No, you made it much worse. Your additions are just padding, except for the unwarranted addition of "sad". This is exactly what's terrible about the emphasis of the syllable count to the exclusion of the other principles and ideals of the form.

I do not deserve

Me again, commenting on my own stuff. The big issue with this version is that it sounds like broken English. ("Tontoism," as some have called it, but that term is tasteless and unnecessary) I like all the sentiments in it though, and the "mode" of their expression seems alright...I still have to "vaporize" it a bit, find the most elegant expression of all the sentiment I'm after...then there would be room for articles.

Even if the feedback I've gotten is all/mostly shitposts, I have benefitted from it, for having to see my own work and the experience itself through different lenses, and I am grateful to you all for that.

Solid as the silence is.

Oh shit, I just realized that this makes it sound like I killed the bird. I...kinda like it though. I could have two poems on this theme: one wear the seagull dies and my tires sing a kind of mourning song, and one where I stop in time. I enjoy the "seagull settling" also describing it as roadkill. Sometimes, in poetry, you get interesting things you don't intend. It's good to embrace this fact.

Are any good haiku poets currently alive?

Rippling still waters
Rowing spontaneously
Deliriously

The fields of the rye
Knowing I may have made lives
I leave them to play

(I wrote this a few days ago and then knelt on my zabuton with a fucken dagger then chickened out)

It should go:

Still waters rippling
Rowing deliriously
Spontaneously

I'm not happy with it, 'deliriously rowing spontaneously?'

Tactful digression
Inhospitable climate
Ineffectual

Lacking ideas,
I will take the high ground by
shitting on others

I licked her asshole
She let out a couple braps
The taste made me hard

My throat opened up
Her delicious turds slid down
I swallowed with pride

She didn't use to
Like shitting into my mouth
But now she just grins

As the turds slide down
She smiles knowing that I
Will never leave her

The shame she once felt
At doing this stuff for me
She now feels power

My face, her toilet
I drink her pee, eat her shit
Worship her sweet farts

For if I had to
Choose another way to live
It would break my heart

Delightful inquisitions
Harbored melodies

Here's one of mine. I've written a lot of haiku. I find the strict 5-7-5 meter to be more suited to Japanese than to English, so I tend to vary the number of syllables/morae in each line while remaining within the 17-syllable limit. Hope you like it. :-)

nice try but
>Although the word "on" is sometimes translated as "syllable", one on is counted for a short syllable, two for an elongated vowel or doubled consonant, and one for an "n" at the end of a syllable. Thus, the word "haibun", though counted as two syllables in English, is counted as four on in Japanese (ha-i-bu-n); and the word "on" itself, which English-speakers would view as a single syllable, comprises two on: the short vowel o and the moraic nasal n̩.

Honestly, I envy you, if it's really the case that you get to djg into Shiki for the first time. He's one of the Big 4 (Basho, Buson, Issa, Shiki) for a reason.

Japanese generally has more syllables per word, so English haiku that strictly adheres to the count often misses the feeling of authentic traditional Japanese haiku. You can do Basho's entire famous fog haiku in one line, like:

Old pond. Frog jumps. Splash!

or

Frog jumps in old pond.

It's hard for English haiku to preserve the extreme minimalism of haiku while sticking to the syllable count. It's also a significant reason why 99.9% of English haiku is shit.

The blood flows from me
Self inflicted, natural
Sat and accepted

Fuck off mods and
Stop moving the WWoYM thread
Fuck the jannies too

close eyes and seize it
I am the beast I worship
light torch and burn it

These are cute an all, but y'all don't need to to stick to the autistic 5-7-5 rule as the first fucking guy said, but y'all still doing it anyway. If you want to know how REAL poets do it, look no further than the OG haiku master himself, Ezra Pound.

In a Station of the Metro:
The apparition of these faces in the crowd;
Petals on a wet, black bough.

Grew up believing
Love was something real
Time to have sex

>Not posting his greatest work

My life is like a fart
After greasy anal sex
The jews did everything
-Ezra Pound

On midnight roof
A sudden drum-song
Spring rain

>le epic assertion of superior knowledge without substance
master of literature right here

OP is a fag;
His father abandoned him.
Yea Forums is fucking trash.

>without substance
Clear reference is made to the Wikipedia page; all you have to do is go there and read it. Essentially it's no different than copy-pasting the pertinent information.

Yea Forums could never write
haikus, too, exceed their grasp
now I make amends:

let's just fuck it all
Yea Forums is already fucked
best start somewhere else

old 5-7-5
he says form is just a tool
he works with his hands

no education
is necessary for this
small activity

snow falls quietly
dampened cherry blossom sings
muffled in the dusk

hardy fucking kek
very based and redpilled, sir
sure it's a haiku

headfirst down the well!
damn that moon which, overhung,
pulled my gaze away

Seagull circles down,
tucks his wings once on the ground,
slam brakes, beak breaks, dead.

we don't have this thread
all too often actually
haikus are too much

Contrast and surprise:
every line must read as one
all must serve the point

haiku is preferable
but only if you know how
to stick to the form

haikus are quite small
saying nothing with little,
not much, takes great skill

milk of my mother
and the warmth of her bosom
my eyes were still closed

many dubs have been
rolled and checked within this thread
but not by you, friend

He is trying to
incite a debate about
translation, and form.

old duckweed circle
in the garden, frog jumps in
makes a little *plop*

I know, not often
I really wanted to say
"OP is a fag"

faded filament
just a little orange glow
still burns hot for you

still rowing, waters
rippling deliriously,
spontaneously

damn my hands, no balm
scabbing thick on both my palms
touch must come from alms

the gulag, they said,
was the sure destination
of an honest man

when they sunk their spades
a black igneous torrent
rose up, ignited

to use more than one
to tell one story; it is
disingenuous

onions have layers
so onions are like ogres
ogres have layers

jolly pilgrim on
the road, kicks a stone, hello
joke cracked -- open-toed

we all have wet holes
we are all just wet donuts
with bacteria

haikus should only be written in japanese.. .just like dactylic hexameter should only be written in ancient greek.

english haikus are seriously fucking dumb and i haven't read a single good one.

the nature of this site
trembles of my hearth, fog of mind
an user lost in Yea Forums

jezebel posting
ruins ten Yea Forumsizens' streaks
every single day

his stone eyes downcast,
from hands reads the faded leaves
fallen, winter's page

snow! a first for all,
save the teachers, and the one
graveyard blanketed

"tree fiddy" she said
Nessie you dumb bitch, it is
5.75

"I have said it all!"
he roared, and arched his back and
slumped back down again

man with a big iron
walked into town today, I
kept my damn head down

*the old/graveyard blanketed

*rode into town today

doesn't sound like you'd be willing to read much English haiku...in which case it makes sense that you haven't found any good ones

damn, you're actually good at this

a starlight picnic
overlooks a quiet town
I lean in closer

...and then last, I walk
the forest path, I look down
into town, I laugh...

Flowing river of cum.
I relapsed... Fuck!
I will become Chad.

Flowing river of cum.
"You will fuck me so long that
I will be cum, Chad."

big fat nut busts and
Chad goes Super Saiyan on
my bright pink fuck hole

how do I learn to write decent haiku
any reading you'd recommend

somewhere shines the sun
spears of light carry the death
that connects us all

i fuked ur mum
in the bum
then i cum

That's not a haiku

Cummy yummy cum
Did twice cum up in my bum
And one in my tum

truth dredged from sadness
as the Cheeto Puff Man dies
smell my finger - yours

young boy on a walk
idly kicks a paper bag
it's filled with cement

ed è subito sera

What the fuck is this?
/haiku/ hit the bump limit?
I'm so proud of y'all :)

I know it's just a silly one, but the urgency you built was pretty legit, and the story arc was satisfying. keep it up!
