A great sage of our time!

Remember writing haiku in your elementary school language arts classes? Good times, right? Not until Dada has poetry been more accessible to the masses — you only need to count syllables! First line, five. Second line, seven. Third, five again. Simple!
Of course, there is an art to creating sensually evocative imagery with such brevity — but who cares? Leave that to the stuffed shirts. Here at KEXP, we just want to write silly haiku about about bands, albums, live performances, anything music-related, and we’d like you to join us.
The DJs, staff, interns, and volunteers have contributed to a request for any haiku related to the 5th Annual Yule Benefit on Saturday night. Here’s a sampling from the station. Leave a comment below with your own Yule Benefit haiku and look for more episodes of Haiku Review to follow:
