dreamwidth_haikai is a place to share your love for Dreamwidth one syllable at a time. Whether welcoming new members to Dreamwidth or squeeing about the latest features, put your passion before your nerves--you might just surprise yourself.
Poets of all skill levels welcome.

For those unfamiliar with the term, think of 'haikai' as an extended form of 'haiku': alternating stanzas of 5-7-5 and 7-7 syllable lines. (Historically, haiku evolved from the starting verse of haikai.)
The fun begins when one person posts a stanza(s), and another starts a comment thread with a new stanza. Thus, the more the merrier!
Disclaimer: I'm an addict; if you post, I'll definitely respond.
