Haiku haikuha ikuha

A Haiku is a Japanese poem of seventeen syllables, in three lines of five, seven, and five, traditionally evoking images of the natural world. A second definition is that it is a poem in English written in the form of a haiku. The definition of the latter is addressed in this Urban dictionary definition of Haiku haikuha ikuha.

A Haiku haikuha ikuhai is an instantiation of a Haiku that is doomed to failure from it's very conception, in that despite its faithful attempt to rigorously follow the classic poetic form, despite scoring in the 94th percentile, which would give it an educational grade of an A, following poetry form is strictly a pass / fail commitment, and sadly might be summed up otherwise as

"it just doesn't have a KU."
"Damn, Chauncey wrote another brilliant haiku; he's so good it's disgusting, no wonder everyone hates him, and even worse, he doesn't have a fucking haiku haikuha ikuhai ."
