The SciFaiku Manifesto
======================

SciFaiku is a new form of poetry, based on the haiku, that is
burgeoning on the Internet. Key differences are that the sole
subject of the poem is science fiction as opposed to nature, the
structure of 17 syllables is not as strict as in traditional
haiku, and it usually contains a "science" word (as opposed to a
"season" word in traditional haiku). It is these science words
that pose the greatest challenge, as phrases like "space-time
continuum" takes up several syllables. This Web site contains a
further elaboration of the form SciFaiku as well as a collection
of submitted SciFaikus. There is also a collection of pointers to
regular haiku sites, as well as general poetry archives.
