To mess with your head, this haiku is written on just a single line.
Does that mean its still a haiku?
you need some way of breaking up “haiku” and “is” or it isn’t a haiku.
It is a haiku, just put on a single line. Why is that so hard?
exactly, I see that. I’m just saying, put a coma or something in between the second and third line.
Also, I made a mistake. The break between the second and third isn’t “haiku” and “is”, it’s between “on” and “just”.
No, it’s not a haiku, because haikus cannot use words that are broken up in order to fulfill the syllable rules. You fail.
It doesn’t do that, BloonBlade.
Firstly, Western concept of haiku is very different from the Japanese.
All these examples are western ones, which is why syllables matter.
Haikus have no rules about how many lines there are in each poem.
I have broken no Haiku rules. You are wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.
And you are possibly the worst haiku writer to ever draw breath.
Do you realize that’s almost a Haiku, Blade? Good for you, brother.
It was indeed a haiku. That’s why I wrote it, silly RandomBloon.
Your Haikus need work. Guilty of breaking up thoughts. Look at mine, they rock.
No, they’re too obvious. Separated at each line. You should get better.
Your first line has six. That reply of yours was not a Haiku at all.
But the whole thing obeys the haiku rules. It is therefore legal. Silly.
No, dear Bloony Blade. The point of a good haiku is that it’s fluid.
Nien, the point of a good haiku is to be concise, yet meaningful.
Conciseness is a key, as is the meaningfulness. But rhythm trumps all.
I disagree. Haikus have less emphasis on rhythm than most prose.
The way you write them, seventeen syllables straight, what sense is that, eh?
Well, when the sentences have correct grammar, it works perfectly. Dunce.
No, Not at all, Blade. You merely write sentences, and then call them poems.
Well, now you’re just begging for me to ask you for a definition.
What, pray tell, is poetry? What separates it from normal writing?
Ok, touche. I can’t really do that, I just dont think that writing a sentence with 17 syllables means it’s a haiku.
Well, according to our buddy MicroBloon here, it does mean just that.
And I’m ashamed that you did not continue our haiku war. What gives?
I disagree, Blade. But if you must, believe that. Cease-fire ends then, yes?
Consider the bombs dropped, dear friend. Your sorry ass is going down, boy.
Well I have allies, b*tches such as Max Power. He looks up to me. =)
Well, if he wants to get in this shit, he better switch role models, and fast.
Wrong numbering, noob. Your count is five, seven, six. Step it up a bit.
Sorry. Forgot about that “-ter” on “better”. I’ll do better this time.
I asked some people. Finishing words on new lines, ’tis not a haiku.
Are these “some people” poet laureates, or must I win once again?
No, good point again. But it’s three-zero to me. Chris said you were “dumb”.
…I neither know nor care who “Chris” is. All I know is my haikus rock.
Chris is one smart dude, much smarter than you or I. You also smell weird.
My smell is not strange! I smell wonderful, like freshly made apple pie.
Made with rotten fruit. Your odor is, at best, rank. Please learn to shower.
You guys are crazy. Everyone knows I’m the best. You are terrible.
Oh no she didn’t. You can’t join the war this late. Such foolishness, dear.
Oh you silly boy. I can join at any time. You are the foolish one, sir.
Ooo, she’s got you there. Now whatchu gonna do, boy? Go and run to mom.
Yes, exactly that. “Mommy, these people are mean! Hold me while I cry..”
Silly RandomBloon. You should be tougher than that. Tough like Blade and me.
Blade and I, dear BloonChick. What would MicroBloon say? Really, shame on you.
No, you are so wrong. I wrote it the correct way. So shame on you, foo.
**Seriously, I wouldn’t say “Tough like I”, would I? No. I’d say “Tough like me.” That’s why I WIN! WOO!
Come to think of it, you’re right. You only say “I” as a subject. Whoops!
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha. Blade outsmarted once again. Like my many “Ha”’s? =D
Ha Ha RandomBloon. You think you are so clever. Only you are not.
In reality, I am more clever than either of you. I win!
That’s where you are wrong. If you were smarter than me, I’d have to kill you.
Wow, that is the rule? I guess I must kill you all. What a big pity.
BloonChick, you realize that you just called yourself stupider than us?
Congratulations. You permanently loose now. Let the men fight on.
In general, you shouldn’t insult someone’s brain and then misspell “lose”.
Very good point there. But she said herself she’s dumb. Mine’s human error.
Or simply proof that you’re stupider than the stupid. Not a good thing.
I still am better. You are not men, you are boys. So there, I win now!
Please, BloonChick. I am all that is man. You are but an insolent girl.
What in Haiku’s name. That was not a haiku, sir. You are zip compared to me.
I tire of this fight. Blade, shall we call it a draw? Forget about Chick.
A draw, perhaps. But that does not mean that I shall stop making haikus!
You boys made me cry. Whatever, I’m over yall. ‘Sides I gots a date.
go me! wooooooo! haha
The last sentence was not a haiku. I am ashamed of you, BloonChick.
Let me guess, Chicky. Could it possibly be Will? Talk gets around fast. =D
That it does indeed. Gossip spreads like your mother’s legs. …I think I won.
hahaha yes. yes it is will. and gosh blade, i must be so love struck that i cant make up a haiku anymore
Ok honestly I’m bored of this haiku stuff, I throw in the towl. Feel free to continue, Blade.
Chick…he was mine…did you not feel the hott chemistry between us?
Well you just sucked the entertainment out of this post. Why’d you do that?
Haha Random, no, I did not feel the hott chemistry between you two…You and Travis is a wholee ‘nother story though
Both of you suck, bigtime. No one else is cool enough to make haikus?
I am very cool. Too cool for school, and haikus. Ha ha, I am great.
If by “cool”, you mean “lame”. Lame and silly and not cool at all. No, sir.
I miss the haiku’s. Sob sob sob I am so sad. Bloon Blade is so lame.
She lies, oh so much. Why must you lie so often, Bloon Chick? It’s not cool.
I knew someone would come crawling back to the haikus. Haikus are sweet.
