twitter haiku tea break (with cranberries)
I like the idea of using twitter to send haikus.
@amandapalmer suggested it this morning, so I wrote one on the way to the office, as an experiment...
tail lights red, streaming
wintry yellow tarmac glows;
london’s work beckons.
Then, this evening, inspired by the fridge, whilst I waited for the water to filter before I made some tea.
shrill cranberries wait
redly, fiercely, harshly, fat
mesmerizing sharp
Of course, as well as the 5/7/5 = 17 syllables, they are supposed to have some reference to season...
dancing forlornly
Spring's exaltation near goads
happy somersaults
...Then I found the haiku generator...
archly replying
faintly, serene, first gnat smiles
fumbles, anarchic
Its a sure fire way way to cut down on @rashbre twitter followers.
