    Since you write better
    Than animals taste, I will
    Give up just for you

    (Oh and you had six syllables in your last line - naughty Bhaskar!)

    Nice little expression of veggieness. I'm afraid I haven't much experience with haikus. What's the formula? 5-7-5?

    Oh, okay then. In that case you are forgiven. And I went into a chicken restaurant today, ordered some chicken - substitute bean thing...I can't say I cared much for the taste, but I was proud to have planted the seeds of my vegetarianism, which I hope will grow into an animal - friendly flower!

    seriously, though, that's not a haiku at all, read Dharma Bums by Kerouac, then read Kerouacs book of Haikus.
    here's one

    shit writer
    urinating thoughts

    read a poetic masterpiece, "Gifted Disabilities" by Justin blackburn. its on www.booksurge.com, read it now, and you'll have no problems writing after that. its broken the mold, peoples.

    seriously though, i just dug deeper into you peoples haiku shit. they're not even haikus, they're just american three line dorky phrases. you gotta capture something people, and you gotta do so by making the reader see something in their head besides a bucket of shit. it's gotta ring, it's gotta stop, but it can't ever stop, know what i mean. it's the paradox of writing down and unstateable moment. get it, and you got it.

    vegetarian haikus:

    biting the remnants
    where a soul once perched

    untimely demise
    animal lava
    unseen eruption

    chewing cudd
    to being chewed

    fear the slaughter
    leave it for the ingestors

    ok so its not haiku. Personally, I dont care much for Kerouac. I sure as hell am not gonna go around reading books to teach me how to write, because I write spontaneously. Every single one of your poems, while being effective images, were quite distant to what I wished to convey and why I started this thread at all. If you dont like the "shit" I write, then don't read it.

    I have no great animosity against meat eaters. I disagree with their choices, but I know far too many wonderful omnivores to hate them.

    Todays poem:

    My mind seems frozen
    The world is in slow motion
    It all seems so strange.

    do not hate
    because I eat meat
    i'm not bad

    I do it because
    I can not survive without
    I am quickly ill
