Rant What the fuck are the point of haiku poems?

[Soyteen Liker]

For those that don't know, they're Japanese (but English versions exist too) "poems" with 3 lines in a 5-7-5 syllable pattern, except sometimes that rule doesn't apply apparently. I already find most poems kind of stupid, it's like deciphering a puzzle only for a gay message like "whaoaooaoa life is beautiful!!" but haikus are too short to sound good so they just seem fucking retarded, how can anyone take this shit seriously?


HOW IS THAT A HAIKU? And what the fuck is that even supposed to even say?


"That's it? That's the emotionally striking haiku?"

Maybe this website is AI o algo but every haiku I see is fucking stupid.



More "profound" haikus.

Am I missing something or do you guys agree?

It's presented as if they make sense in English (which they don't), without any explanation of the Japanese langauge's context. Perhaps it was my introduction to them that was at fault, my bad

The point of haikus
Is to convey a message
Of the author's point

forcibly mixing languages and structures don't really work, much like how race mixing creates abominations
