No offense but you need to work on the haiku there hip. :wink:

Haiku: Seventeen-syllable verse form, arranged in three lines of five, seven and five syllables.

Actually none of this is a haiku is it?

I just assumed the quality members in this forum would have counted out the syllables.

You kill when you talk
And the enemy weakens
Your words start to walk

Stab a sorry heart
with your favourite finger
paint the whole world blue
There's times when I've been deeply indifferent
