I am Stephen. I live in Bristol, UK. I decided to shorten my profile...to this: Wildlife, haiku, travel, streetart, psychogeography and my family. Not necessarily in that order.

  1. You should stop trying to write a haiku in the Japanese format of 575 because it’s not meant for English. Just write a poem of 17 syllables. 😁

    1. You are right, but I rather like the structural challenge, it is part of the game. Very occasionally I break from the haiku and write a free form poem, but I am not a poet. The main thing for me is the mental discipline. Telling stories succinctly. I am not a haiku purist I guess, it is a vehicle for me to use. Just sometimes I churn out a good one.
