The Infinite Haiku

[lizzytysh]

we are relaxed now
inventing new syllables
our latest pasttime

OR [should "our" be "ow-er"]

we are relaxed now

Dear 1 2 3 4 5 6,
you can't count, kindly
bugger off. Love,
Cate

the last line remains

des·ti·na·tion: far

Cate, you are showing ignorance, stubborn wilfulness, or poor pronunciation skills

des-ti-na-ti-on far = 6 syllables. The word "destination" is not pronounced by any educated person as "destinashun"

Alice

"I am not a number"

Associated Press pronunciation guide says "destinay'shun." I'll go with that.

Latest distraction
Driving me half crazy
the other half sane.

[Gullivor]

Driving me half crazy = 6 syllables.

[News Gal]

Driving me half crazy = 6 syllables.

Oopsie! I should have typed "driving me halfway crazy." Thanks!

[Violet]

seems more likely that
you meant totally crazy
but this too shall pass...

... my changes as per Lizzy's comment below...

the other half sane?
not on days like this (I'd claim)
but this too shall pass...

...(this really sounds like crap now)...

... (I take that back... methinks it might be an improvement)...

Hi Violet ~

The unlegislated rules of the ol' Infinite Haiku is that you must use the last line of the previous one as the first line of your own .


~ Lizzy

[tinderella]

But this too shall pass...
all these Haiku corrections
they are a good laugh

( I pronounce it Hi-Koo............. feel free to correct me if I'm wrong )

OHMUGOD... what ever was I thinking? it's been a topsy turvy day here is all...

... I will reconsider that inexcusable entry...

I get the impression that the delineated structure is what gives the idea of or lends to the "Infinite" ~ the linking chain, as it were... you reach out your hand with your last line and the next one grabs it and makes it their first. So, unless we get all tangled up with our hands, it stands a chance to just keep going and going and going, like a long daisy chain.

Not "inexcusable" at all...


~ Lizzy

I just noticed your changes. Hey, I like it...

[Violet]

... thanks Liz (do you like being called Liz?)... I guess I'll get things back on track, since we sort of derailed here a bit...

They are a good laugh.
Hi Koo Koo Koo is what they
sing while... blah blah blah...

[lizzytysh]

sing while... blah blah blah...
Lizzy is what I prefer
blah train seeking rails

[Violet]

blah train seeking rails
(Lizzy it shall remain then)
need we a captain?

[lizzytysh]

need we a captain?
when our ship seems lost at sea?
we can handle it

[News Gal]

We can handle it
Whatever is brought to us
We walk facing East.

[anneporter]

we walk facing east
silent, sleeping city streets
scrubbed by salt sea air
