Okay, this essay is long, but give it a read if you want to understand why it’s an urban myth to think of English-language haiku merely in terms of 5-7-5 syllables. NaHaiWriMo is not really anti-5-7-5, but it’s hardly the only target for haiku, and in English you don’t need to aim at such a syllable pattern

It's amazing to me that TK would go through the trouble to create a website just to support his false haiku theories

I've definitely never been through anything close and can't imagine it. I'm not making light of that, just the post.
