Yes, it's poetry, but it's science-fiction poetry in an easily-digestible comic-book form!

I think I shall never see
a poem as lovely as Qutiri
A land of ancient hills and quakes
that cause the many states to shake
Of felines gold,and wares untold
made by those industries so bold
A land of dusky yellow and red
where all the folks are quite well fed.
Such a land it is for me
a place of wonderous jollity
For a poem can be made by any churl
But only Giles can make a world

Day breaks silent
Mist in trees, Winter
Haiku duel at dawn, Anyone?

El Viejo I ask,
is not, five, seven, five - best?
Autumn winds whisper.

This could be a long discussion, DH (or should I say Commander "Haggard").
For instance, what is a syllable? Not quite a mora(s).
But yes, 5-7-5 is best. The seasonal reference is crucial.
The best Haiku must come on their own. To do them in haste, well...there's a Haiku there somewhere.
Regards.

Purchase trumbles now!
