No life (Haiku)

by Startle Me   Apr 2, 2007


Walking down the street
See person that is homeless
Introduced herself

Hello. How are you
Person looks at her funny
Also kind of sad

He answers to her
Talk to a stranger you would?
Why is that, my dear?

I have no life, sir
No one to love, none to hate
She sits beside him

Now I am like you
Person disagrees, shakes head
No, I have a life

    Hmm... intresting idea for a haiku. I mean you wrote 5 and then kinda put them all togerther. Its different seeing a haiku in the life catagorie, their usually in nature. I like the kinda story that youve wrote in this poem.. i odnt really know what to say... there something missing... but its an intresting read. Keep writiting. xx

    This didnt fit all too great as a haiku. it needed a few words, but since it was in a specific format, it didnt aid the poem to its full potential.

    This was an interesting poem. I loved the ending i thought it was funny. However i must admit that most Haiku's are only one stanza and so this isn't really a traditional Haiku. Nevertheless it was enjoyable.
