Encouraged by a Michelle Malkin link to a haiku on John Edward’s hair I thought I would try my feeble hand at the art form…
Beautiful hair
Wafting hairspray
Ozone depletionor

Bald, wanting John’s hair.
But John sued my doctor and
He can help no more.
Protecting his turf… 😉 Neil, over at Digitus, Finger & Co. wrote a fine one also.
Haiku is all about syllable count. I don’t remember the exact requirements, but one of lines is supposed to be 12 syllables long.
Traditionally haiku is 17 syllables but in a 5-7-5 setup for the three lines of the verse. However, since this was Democratic Haiku, I thought the “message” was the important thing and we could make up the rules as we went along. Isn’t that the Democratic way? 😉
