Passing through this world
Leave nothing but a foot print
which time will remove

Hold what's beautiful
through our fingers like white sand
Life slips unnoticed.

by last opinion, haikus only from now on -
Correct me if I'm wrong
But this is a site for bad poem.
So bad, they're good.

Don't need a lecture
Don't need a few good pointers
I'll blaze my own path.
Like Issa and Bashuo had to do.
Suck? yes. Having fun? You bet.

I have submitted many attempts at haikus here, you guys Vince, Ash, etc, need to stop using this as a forum...

LISTEN- HAIKU SHOULD EVOKE IMAGERY, not be a essay... read Bashu... read Jack Keurac (american Haiku on Youtube) ---- even forget about the sylables (english Haikus dont count sylables anyawy) --- JUST FOCUS ON THE IMAGE ----
