I thought haiku were 5 words, 7 words, 5 words or something to that effect.

Or maybe that's a different type.

Or maybe it was supposed to be like that to add to the

write stupid poetry.

Haiku require a 5-7-5 structure, yes. But it's syllables, not words. You should know enough about the Japanese language by now to understand why they're counted by syllable rather than word. Haiku is the most structured form of poetry there is, the only thing that comes close is limerick, so I always had a bit of a thing for it (comparatively, my other favorite form of poetry to write is concrete, which is probably one of the most freeform types of poetry there is, all you have to do is make sure the words fit into a particular shape, fun stuff).

Wouldn't the first line "I look at all" only be 4 syllables? Might be saying it wrong, I really hated poetry growing up -.-

*cough* Typo, sorry.

"I look at all of
the pretty colors that I see
they look good to me."


It was funny ten years ago... at least I thought it was.

Hmm... the hell... You have 2 accounts? LoL

"Chiri mo tsumori yamato nari" - Even specks of dust can gather to form a mountain.

Don't know if this is the correct translation...

[UruseiNeo]

Why did you start talking about specks of dust and a mountain?

I wrote one day while under the influence of illegal hallucinogens.

I'll just use this as my defence... XD

just think about the meaning... maybe you'll understand one day...

aw thanks, some of the comments on the video are pretty harsh, but they may have been more to the guy on the left who didn't look like he knew what he was doing XD
