HAIKU MADNESS


An epidemic
Of seventeen syllables?

oh I don't know ...

the Japanese masters would write dozens in a day to capture fleeting impressions of their landscape. They're all right if you can resist becoming addicted :)
Just to paraphrase Oscar Wilde

I can resist anything except addiction. 
 
A verse comes along 
Appearing simple to write 
And we become pimps.

Ah, fellpony, regards an earlier comment (cake and cheese) no, I'm not a northern lad, only northern Welsh. 
 
Cheers 
Brett
