Haiku

Discussion in 'The Artist's Corner' started by headyhippie, May 4, 2008.

  1. I started writing haikus in class the other day because they were funny and easy to write. then just a few minutes ago i was smoking and one just came to me... normally i smoke out of my bong (phx trinity) but i was in a bit of a time crunch so for the first time in many weeks i used my little bubbler. The bubblers bowl is just inches in front of my eyes as I hit it, and thats when the words came, i watched the flames light the magic herbs and as it cherried the smoke filled the glass. here is the haiku:

    flames kiss the fine green,
    orange cocoon transforms to black,
    the white smoke fills me

    flames kiss the fine green,
    orange cocoon transforms to black,
    the smoke changes me


    I dont know which way I like better, some feedback would be cool. Everyone post your stoney hikus too and share them with the world.

  2. I'd say go with the one that came to you first. I've found usually with haiku it really is a crystallized moment, and they should stand as the words originally flowed.

    I like it, dude.
     

  3. Dude thats exactly what it is. I was trying to think of a way to explain it and that is just it. the haiku was just exactly what i was feeling in that moment put into words.
