Haiku: Anti-Emo Style

Ξ August 30th, 2007 | → | ∇ Friends, Poetry |

A brief poem by Theo, Lizzie, George, Shivian, and Frank.

your poem is shitty
haiku hates your emo poem
refrigerator

This happened because we were sitting around the other night, goofing off after a yummy stew made by George. Somehow we started talking about emo people, and then all of a sudden Elizabeth says ‘Haiku Hates your Emo Poem’

Of course, I said, ‘Wait, that’s not a haiku!” and then, after a discussion in which we determined that a Haiku is 5-7-5, and a few minutes of laughing, we have the anti-emo haiku you see above.

autumn twilight

    Where two opposing forces meet, where there is change, a between place exists. These places are sacred points where the world as we know it can be suspended.

    It is here that I strive to live my life. As a mystic, I wander in and out of the between places with each waking moment; striving to find wisdom and meaning in the paths that I walk.

    autumn twilight is my personal exploration of these journeys. A place to share observations, fantasies, thoughts, experiences, and philosophy.
