On Haiku.


On Haiku.

It is sad that it has come to this
that I must count syllables
when I would have counted
the ways that I loved you

the ways that I loved you
before you demanded a haiku
you said life was too short
for anything more than three lines.

Write a poem you said
write it in our autumn mists
I'm leaving you now.
