1. What is a haiku?
Is it a kind of poem?
Or an assignment….
2. Time to celebrate
Hockey season is now here
So, Let’s Go Rangers!
3. Haikus make me think
What is there to write about?
I have no idea.
4. No clue what to write
My mind is drawing a blank
..Bring back the pictures
5. 2 am haiku
Should have done it early, but..
Better late than never
My mind scrambles for
Yet another word to write
In my great haiku.
I am lacking some
Direction…don’t know where to go.
What should I do?
Overall, you seem to employ very straightforward and simple word choices in your haikus. The subjects you tend to write about are usually about the act of writing a haiku. I feel like your haikus usually convey an inquisitive mood, sometimes showing your confusion or lack of direction. You tend to question yourself or other people in your haikus. Therefore, when I tried to emulate your style, I tried to make my tone more questioning and probing. I also tried to capture the mood of someone when they don’t know what they are doing or have no idea where to start. I also noticed that you used a lot of ellipses, which contribute to the sense of cluelessness that your haikus convey, so I also tried to incorporate that into the haiku. After reading your haikus, I feel like sighing because there is also a sense of restlessness and reluctance in your poems. Also, I feel like your daily photos really differ from your daily haikus in that your photos seem to convey a more uplifting mood.
