All poets care about hiakus. The fact that you don't just shows how far down the culture chain you have allowed your solitary life to slip. Try to hide this ignorance from RDG if you know what's good for you. A friendly warning.
I congratulate you, oh master, for your bold disregard of the ancient 5-7-5 tradition. Your new invention of free-form Haiku is indeed revolutionary and to be revered.
Now all that remains is for you to work on your enlightened meta 4.

5-7-5 may be tradition, but it's far from definitive.
ReplyDeleteNo poetry is definitive. Certainly not mine.
DeleteYou are much closer to the expert on such things than I am.
