Okay, so let's try a little exercise. I thought it would be fun to try and come up with haikus that are contrary. Something that disagrees with itself, with you, with everything, really. Things that make sense but would never, or should never, be said. I'll get the ball rolling.

I have a problem
I hate the person that wrote
This lousy haiku

    Hi folks, just came up with this one for my son, who was procrastinating via Haiku:

    Haiku is not math
    It requires no theorems
    Go do your homework

      During this process, he came up with this one (or stole it, I don't know):

      Haikus are easy
      Like the one I'm doing now
      Count the syllables.

    Another one, inspired by Cryptonomicon:

    Modern Haiku, with
    telecomunications
    cannot say much else

      Excellent!

      Haiku and writing
      Go hand in hand in hand but
      My cat has no thumbs

      Sounds like I'm drinking
      But I'm only wasting time
      Waiting for a drink
