Time to get your Japanese poetry slam on, MST3K style!
The haiku format consists of five syllables in the first line, seven syllables in the second line, and five syllables in the third and final line.
A haiku doesn’t have to rhyme, and punctuation/capitalization are entirely up to the writer. Here’s an example of an MST3K-themed haiku:
Troy and Rowsdower
Stealing the old codger’s food
Pondering beer sun
Let’s see what you’ve got!
