I love vegetables.
I think I will marry them.
Stick them in my butt.
Haiku is a form of poetry popular in Japan, which is becoming more widely appreciated around the world in this century. Haiku writers are challenged to convey a vivid impression in only 17 Japanese characters, or often in lines of 5-7-5 syllables. You can try some at home.

A CABBAGE, Val?!?!? Good gravy!
This was almost funny, until you explained what a haiku was. I think enough people know what it is to not have to explain.

Haikus are only popular because they're easy. Maybe a completely brilliant haiku would score a +0 in my book.

+2 For using an imperative sentence at the end.

English Haikus sound terrible compared to the ancient Japanese ones.
I was taught a few words of ye olde Japanese so i could understand the old haikus. They sound beautiful from a native jaanese speaker and the Japanese language itself is such that a single sentence can have several meanings which is usually the case with the best haikus.
This is pointless; a fruitless endeavour at haiku (pun).

You say Haiku is becoming "more widely appreciated around the world in this century' and yes that's true, but Haiku like this is just pointless.
