Well done on a sublime haiku, and the fact that you did a writeup to accompany it is good, otherwise a post of only three short lines would be lame. Good imagery in the haiku. I also write poetry to appreciate your effort here.

Hi Julian, glad you enjoyed the Haiku m8.

the fact that you did a writeup to accompany it is good, otherwise a post of only three short lines would be lame.

Ha ha, yeah well I'm pretty much unable to put up any post that short (3 lines). However, I do have a problem with the perception that people have around poetry and haiku in particular.

I've had a few poems published outside of steem in literary anthologies, and I studied creative writing in uni, so it's easier for me to recognise the markers for well edited/crafted poetry I guess. I was the first (insane 😉) person to successfully submit steemians poetry to curie. The idea that a Haiku is a shitpost is a wrong idea to me. A haiku can be a Shitpost... if it's one that shows no device or consideration of form. This haiku took me around an hour to write and edit outside of the added explanatory text, and it's not the best out of this week's selection. I think today's haiku, scheduled for later, is my best so far.

P.s. I'm not having a go at you btw, I'm only writing all this in case anyone happens along, reads this post and thinks... this guy just isn't putting in the effort.

Thanks for the feedback 👍I'll have to check out your poetry m8 🙂
