Shakespeare's Monkeys

Infinite Monkeys. Infinite Typewriters.

aphasic's athenaeum of illiteration «  

Don't mention the haiku...

(by popular demand)

I did once, and my nipples exploded - otherwise I think I'd have gotten away with it.
Q How many poets does it take not to write a haiku?
A How long is a piece of cake?

The perfect haiku: should read the same backwards as forwards, each line should be interchangeable; it should comprise either 17 or 71 syllables & 575 characters (more on this at a later date).

Resolving the unresolved...
Q How many light bulbs does it take to change a poet?
A Who gives a shit? [cos i've got an idea...]

but soft, what fibre
from yawned orifice falls
five leaves left, unsoiled

The term 'haiku' should be applied as both singular and plural, like 'sheep', and [according to the BBC] 'phenomena'.

[I need] more haiku, less sleep...
All men are poets;
all poets are gay;
therefore - all men are gay.
Is that a valid syllogism, or should I vacate the premises and read Kant for my sins?

Hahahaha... are you going to publish this?  And you should read Kant just to give you more ideas for your sins.  And Foucault.  Actually, I just like Foucault because of his name. 

They reckon you shouldn't enjamb a haiku.  I reckon they should enjamb the lot of them.
