sometimes it's just a twist in the last line - like in this one by Dinosaur.Kashluk wrote:Not sure about the "thesis + antithesis + synthesis", but some rule books say that you need to be able to figure out the time of the year (spring, summer, fall, winter) in the haiku, otherwise it isn't properly written.
Why havent I wikied it yet Let's see..
"Haiku is a form of Japanese poetry, consisting of 17 morae (or on), in three metrical phrases of 5, 7 and 5 morae respectively[1]. Haiku typically contain a kigo, or seasonal reference, and a kireji or verbal caesura. In Japanese, haiku are traditionally printed in a single vertical line, while haiku in English usually appear in three lines, to parallel the three metrical phrases of Japanese haiku"
