lolz funny! ^.^

Your summary war longer than the poem. this amuses me. the poem was good, I engoyed it.And now I must be a true critic becuse my review is longer than the text:)

nice nice nice

Very good! I can't stop laughing after reading the review from "Hercules",

"Talk and you are dead!"

Ha ha!

By the way, I just noticed you've deleted your poem "Smoke and Silence". !? I LOVED that one! I'm sure you have your reasons, but PLEASE consider reposting it! I searched my faves list in vain, but it was GONE!

Ha! That's why I am always in an elevator by myself! Ha, I win! *nice men in clean white coats come and take Widom away*

I think of adding 'Talk and you are dead!' for the forth line. But that is not haiku any more...:P

Hehe, one of the most awkward places to be I agree! Nice poem.

Awesome. Made me smile. Metaphor for modern, button-pushing, conformist and horribly mediocre Average American? Maybe I'm delving too far down. Eh.

god i h8 em 2.well done on da poem.v.cool.

Very nice! Good way of showing how uncomfortable it is to stand in a crowded lift.

Keep it up! ^^__^^

i hate elevators. As a matter of fact I go out of my way to take the stairs. Your poem says why i hate them...the people don't talk they just stare at you while pretending to be looking at something over your head or the numbers. I hate them. Sorry didn't mean to go off sub. great piece. In those three lines you describe what I feel about elevators. I guess it is what you get out of it.

lol, dat was funny. i like elevator rides, u get to make other ppl feel uncomfortable, it rocks.

newayz, gj =) u managed to remember to follow the 5-7-5 haiku rule

haha. so true. ever so true. especially your summary. i mean - honestly. i hate haikus, by the way. with a huge passion. but now and then i'll find a really good one. and what makes them good is they're original, and they have this simple meaning, and they allude to something so much more complicated. since most people just can't do that in a syllable-defined poem, myself included, i just gave up on them. but this is great. i don't even know if you meant to have a deeper meaning to this. but there is. =D props. do me a favour and check out something i've written?

Wow. You managed to describe every elevator ride I've ever had (not to mention the nature of swedes in general) in 13 words. Spiffy. :)

Eh heh heh heh! That's like this one time, I was on this elevator where my dad was at a buisiness meeting, and no one said anything... it was really annoying, and they were all dressed up with their suave briefcases. GAWD! Lol... good write.

i like haikus because they are very simple, but can mean so much more in a different level of thought. I like this poem. I can see it as a poem of an elevator, or something else that hits me from a personal level.
