The Haiku Test

Sit down by a stream--
How like haiku is your soul?
Listen; you will know.

Get started with these questions...

1

Rainy or cloudy. Good contemplative weather.

Usually sunny, I guess. But not sunny all the time.

Sunny and not too hot.

Weather? I spend most of my time indoors, so I don't really care or notice.

2

I wonder what he's doing, where he's going. I sometimes go a bit closer to get a better look.

I look at it for a second and keep going wherever I was headed.

Kill it, usually.

I squeal a lot and try to get someone to kill it for me.

3

Not one that I get paid for. I keep myself busy, though.

Yeah, but it's a stupid job. I'd rather be doing something more meaningful.

Yup. Minimum wage.

Of course! How else am I going to pay for all my CDs?

4

Rice, maybe a few vegetables, tea or wine.

Not a whole lot of meat, but some.

Hamburgers, sandwiches, that sort of thing.

Mickey D's, yo!

5

Solitude, preferably in a cabin in the mountains or by the ocean.

Only one or two other people sharing a house with me, and away from the big city.

An apartment with my significant other or roomates of some kind. I dig the city scene.

Loft or penthouse of some kind. Gotta be close to the urban action.
