@brianbilston "Someone pushed me down the stairs at Macchu Pichu," said Tom, incandescently.

@brianbilston
In Scotland, you see,
A "haiku" is just a cow
Sitting in a tree

[brianbilston@mastodon.online]

@theplaguedoc ha ha!

[brianbilston@mastodon.online]

@icecolbeveridge Fabulous.

[ciela@mastodon.ie]

@brianbilston @junesim63 that Shakespearean Haiku is so good.

[pa27@mastodon.social]

@brianbilston Excellent as always. Thanks for brightening my day!

@pa27 Thanks, Graeme

@brianbilston

Haikus are easy.

@brianbilston These are all great! The three-line whip one is actually in the spirit of haiku, too. Sort of.

@brianbilston I read that as Intentional Haiku and immediately thought of all the accidental haiku there must be.

[robjlow@mathstodon.xyz]

@icecolbeveridge @brianbilston Definitely one of your best!

[garry@mstdn.social]

@brianbilston "Attention tortilla". OK.

[kwaktrap@mastodon.social]

@icecolbeveridge Bravo!

[doomsdayscw@kolektiva.social]

@brianbilston Haiku #564127 really speaks to me! Well-done! (And thanks for sharing these.)

@brianbilston
"Ommlet" has a third syllable?

[n1xnx@tilde.zone]

@brianbilston
Definitely a high coup.
