 .the twinkling of an eye 2005-05-28 . chapter 1Your first and last lines were great (though line one should have another syllable), but the "tall" in L2 threw me off. Towers are always tall, and that adjective takes away from the minimalism of haiku. I understand you did it for the syllable count, but it wan't necessary. Maybe you can do something like:
Thoughts, thousand bricks builtInto a tower (add two syllables somewhere into this line)A world within worlds.
That way L1 will be correct and you can choose better description for L2.
Otherwise, good poem. I really like the last line. It's perfect.
Hope this helped,Oksana |
