Today is World Centennial Haiku Day 05/07/05
Rejoice good citizens, today is Haiku Day.
We're all well familiar with rape haiku (and grape haiku from the Mefi thread) but did you know about Scifaiku (science fiction haiku)?
Unless you don't follow the Gregorian Calendar, such as those following the Hebrew, Persian, Islamic , Chinese, or Hindu calendars. To them its just another day, I guess.

You could have at least Posted to Metafilter In haiku format. (Yeah, yeah, I know, 5-7-5 does not a true haiku make, but hey, it's Saturday and I'm lazy.) Also, all but one of the few eBay reviews I leave for sellers are in haiku form.

I wrote a haiku. But it was not very good. So I won't share it.

Over at The Kingdom of Loathing they have a haiku channel. If you go in there you have to type in all haiku or you get banned from chat for an hour (or more). "The heat!"
