Insane Seer

insidiously tangled
in hope of
a divine touch
only mad

(vertical haiku)

Carol - I was looking up another type of poetry and came across "vertical haiku": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haiku_in_English And thanks for stopping by to read it!

Thank you for sharing your poetry Renee. I enjoyed reading it and hope to read more of it soon. May you always find the inspiration to continue with your writing endeavors. I have looked everywhere and do not see this as a form of Haiku anywhere. Can you tell me where you found it? Love, Carol

I don't think you are restricted on how many syllables per line, Mehta. This one is: 1st line: 7 2nd line: 3 3rd line: 4 4th line: 3 As long as the total is 17 and it's split up into 4 lines, it's all good :)
