a birch tree collapses twice
and the birds eat rice

And line break it properly
To make a haiku

Epiphytic growth,
Surviving off ancestors
In Earth's Cancer belt.

>spring
Anon you can't directly name the season which you're referencing in haiku.
Disqualified!

>>9769556
Is this a thing?

>>9769571
In traditional haiku, yes.
Haiku is meant to be referential and as vague as possible, leaving the reader guessing about the scene as much as possible without totally leaving them blind. Its supposed to be representative of things, in order to better transport the reader into the state of being of when the piece was written.
Something like that anyways.

>>9769556
disqualified? dont be silly, though i do appreciate the lesson

4chan spins anew
Shit flung in every corner
Run while you still can

/pol/ infographic:
Stunted masculinity
Is now satisfied.

She's farting or you're farting? The former is hot actually

Tree frogs call all night
The crickets answer elsewhere
I alone below

Lamps spit red moonlight,
A moonless shoreline in doubt
Of that which surrounds.

Starting with the greeks
Why did I heed their advice?
This is really shit

my hyperweapon grows
piercing the heavens of your ass
imperial juice flows

i was at a graveyard today:

the spider hides in
a cleft of my dad's gravestone
but two legs stick out

beneath a stillborn's
granite urn of pine needles
ant larvae writhing

and had a fire tonight:

roly polies seek
someplace cold and damp again
but they are burned up

haikus are so great.

i have nobody,
but when i eat mulberries
it feels like she's here

i have changed my mind
and am going to live in
the stream with muskrats

he waits for the clouds
to pass off, and then waits for
the clouds to come back

i am sick and tired
of sleeping on a red couch.
i am getting tired.

i am for nothings--
rather than living, I shall
almost drink this pear.

First haiku ITT actually in Japanese

冬休み
ももう終わりだ
寒いだね

Speckled with raindrops
Falling and fading, the stream
Washes spring away

>>9769556
You can fix it with a little cleverness.

>Sprung dove dives again
>A birch tree collapses twice
>And the birds eat rice

Here's a waka I've always liked. I'll translate it to see if it holds up as well in English.

故郷の訛り懐かし停車場の人ごみの中にそを聞きに行く

I miss hearing the accent of my hometown.
I go to the station, among the crowds
Straining my ears
