The Sunday Morning Haiku

In light of the success of the brilliant FRIDAY RANT, I humbly submit the flip side of the weekend coin:


I am a Monster
I am Doctor Frankenstein
I'm a Self-Made Man


And when I'm fifty?
Get all my shit together
Breathing, hopefully


At a theater soon...
Do not believe the Snake talk...
"Tom Waits On A Plane!"

Is this a Sunday morning Haiku Rant? Or something a bit more relaxed? What are the rules again for Haiku writing? Is iambic pentameter involved? Can we make it Sunday morning Limericks?

I think a sunday morning bong hit is mandatory for a Haiku contribution..

OK. I did your work for you. Here are the Rules of Haiku:
There are three lines.
The first and third lines of a haiku are each a total of five syllables.
The second line is seven syllables

Line 1:
1 2 3 4 5
Go | to | the | Hub |bub

Line 2:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Sub|mit | your | crap|py | po|ems

Line 3:
1 2 3 4 5
No | one | real|ly| cares

Ouch!
But that gives me some ideas for this Friday.

Smelly! That came across stronger than it should have. I typed in "Haiku rules" in Google and THIS was one of the returns. I did my normal copy and paste thing, but I didn't like the last line, "It's a bonanza" that much, and so I changed it. I actually intend to write a Haiku this Sunday, esp. since it only has to be 3 lines. As for your Haiku: If The Hubbub ever gains a sustainable momentum of its own, I think we'll be able to look back to this day, and your Haiku post, and understand it as being the turning point.
