    Yeah, my bad. I had to research it a bit, afterwards. Keep up the good work, Z. :)

    I'm not familiar with haikus, but I think they focus more on nature. I'd add an apostrophe on "beggars," but other than that, I think you did a good job. :)

      Thanks! C: I'll do that, because its supposed to have that there.
      As for the nature, modern haikus do not need to be about nature. But, this one does have aspects of nature in it, and so I tried to incoporate it. But this one was supposed to be more modern.

    Sorry! I just meant in general.

    I felt this one was pretty concise.

      Oh, it's fine. I'll look at them again. Thank you for the help c: I don't really like writing haiku's much though.

    Maybe try to write them less abstractly? Or if abstract, maybe more themed? No idea.

    I really suck at writing Haikus as well, as you might personally know!

      Hm, my point with this one wasn't to be abstract. I was merely comparing the cat to a mendicant beggar, such as like the ones of the Buddhist tradition. Maybe I should look at them again :c
