Two iPods; plenty

This sad, lonely girl
Wants to experience life
More than she is now.

Day in and day out,
Our work is never over.
So why do we try?

[ primero. ]

Unseen forces lurk,
Filling the empty silence
With deafening sound.

[ segundo. ]

The moon reveres the
Sun, who creates life. Nighttime
Can only bring death.

Relevant to our Interests

A little OT, but I thought a few of you might find this interesting:
The New Haiku?
Harvard professor David McCann says America is ready for sijo
.

The sijo (pronounced SHEE-jo), [is] a traditional poem of 43 to 45 syllables whose third line contains a twist on the theme developed in the first two ... Each line of 14 or 15 syllables consists of a string of four shorter phrases of three, four, or five syllables apiece.

Might be a fun exercise if haiku are starting to feel a little bit stale for you. A more detailed explanation.

Watching her falling

Asleep on her kitchen chair

I wait for the crash.

日本に行く
むずかしですね。
わかりません。

I'm in Japan, land of the haiku, for a six week language immersion program. Thought I'd haiku to celebrate.
Roughly translates to:

Gone to Japan,
it's very difficult.
I understand nothing.
