With a Democrat in congress, haiku must be resurrected and given the chance to flourish.

Haikus are not art
Art are they not in the least
Naysayers ignored

This isn't the place. That thread is in open mic.

Iced cream has sugar
Sugar causes my own death

The Japanese certainly consider it one of their highest poetic art forms. However, it's never quite the same when one tries to do it outside the Japanese language. It is designed for the rhythm and expression of Japanese. Also, there are many forms within the art of Haiku. It is a very intricate type of poetry deep with meaning for Japanese readers. Great Haiku poets are highly honored.

It took me forever to think of a seven syllable word. Six syllables is easy, but not seven.
