Bashō says something unhelpful
Bad Haiku
Horrible poetry for the digital age
29 Years, 81 Days and 78057 Haiku later...
That certain baddness
Oh, it remains elusive
On some poem days

billions of insects
dead days i can't stop counting
the ocean's blind depths

tick tick tick tick tick
crows make me think of nothing
- a trick of the light

to raise Bog's demon.
