Robin Bienemann - Hey Haikuer

Hey Haikuer
I'd like to be more like you are Haikuer
My poetry, syllabically, has too many
The haikus you produce have fewer Haikuer

Brevity is king. Seventeen should be plenty
You set each word like a jeweler Haikuer
Every time you tie your shoe you find something new Haikuer

Mathematically each line is prime
Five, seven, five with no rhyme scheme
Seventeen shish kabob pieces on your table
And you impale them on your skewer Haikuer
Every day, a new bouquet of flowers from manure Haikuer
I'd like to be more like you are Haikuer

Haukuer I don't know how you do it
Have a thought and just haiku it
You must have a high haiku I. Q. Haikuer

No need to be Japanese to make one
It's just a recipe for poetry
Just don't fill it full of extra syllables
They'll make it longer but not truer Haikuer
Every time you tie your shoe you find something to haiku
Haikuer. I'd like to be more like you are Haikuer
