@Dutchy,
green grass is growing
in the rutted wagon tracks
of wheels long retired

@Rockhead,

arguing about nothing,

Try changing a mind
Reality never measures up

@sullyfish6,

Reality never measures up
Nor yet reckons syllables
For haikus, not good.

@McTag,
For haikus, not good?
Everyone's a critic.
We are all poets.

@tsarstepan,
We ar all poets.
Some call it a dreamers moon,
others something cool.

@Dutchy,
Others something cool
Discern within the waters -
I but passing time.

I, but passing time
from going crazy
A2K soothes my soul.

@sullyfish6,
A2K soothes my soul.
For all the lost time and words,
all of it spilled now.

All of it spilled now
no secrets to guard
between me and the dead.

@sullyfish6,
"Between me and the dead" -
One syllable too many...
"Twixt me and the dead"?

@iamsam82,
"Twixt me and the dead"?
Does it really matter we are
amongst friends down here.

@Dutchy,
No... no Dutchy, I suppose it doesn't really -
We should write absolutely anything, disregarding form and convention.
That makes the challenge all the more fun in my opinion... ...

Amongst friends down here
The hot air starts
Signifying nothing

@sullyfish6,
Signifying nothing.
Have written better haiku
than I can today.

(I agree with your comments iamsam82)

@Dutchy,
That I can today
Stand tall in the mundane throng
Is thanks to her wings.

@sullyfish6,
At this end-game's start,
Stood at this crossroads, I find
I would be four mes.

Sully, don't be such a pain. It's 5-7-5.

If your last line hasn't got 5 syllables, the next person has to change it.
If the other two lines are likewise wrong, your haiku is pointless.
And posting as often as you do, it ruins the thread.
Okay?
