    Very nice. (No suggestions as to what category however) One thing I will ask however, was that it was my understanding Haikus are 5, 7, 5. (syllables) Correct? I'm not sure, given the fact I don't write in that style often, but if that is the case your second line is 8. Other than that, wonderful work. 5/5

    Hmm, this was pretty good. In the second line you have 8 syllables and you are supposed to have 7. I suggest getting rid of "A". Other than that, nice job. 5/5

    And you got half of it right in my poem. Lol. =] When she sprouts white wings it does mean she is going to heaven and then when she absorbs the black paint/blood/pain they turn black which means she's going to hell. Hehe, a little complicated. =P

  • Hmm. This was pretty good but I don't really like the last line. It just sounds weird for some reason. Other than that, nice vocabulary and descriptions. 5/5

    This was well written. Good Job, I am surpissed at the rating it has, but then again when I try and do new styles that happens as well for people are not use to the style. Overall great job.

    Ciao, Joe

    Very nicely written, the second version is better, because it does follow the rules of Haiku. Also, my word of the day is 'subsist'. Didn't know what it meant, had to look it up! Lol, I kind of love learning new words :P

    I kinda like it both ways really. I think the words are close enough not to alter the overall effect too much.
    Has a great creepy feel to it.
    Good job.

    I have no clue what the point of Haikus are so I CAN not really give you any help with it (REALLY SORRY)

    American haiku is not as strict as eastern, so the syllable count don't really mean that much.It is the meaning, emotion, and what you are saying that matters.The second verion is better.Great haiku.
