japanese poems
today have gained my fancy
now i share my joy

tolkien's world, nature
these haikus must have them both
because i say so

real haikus, proper
they must have some nature theme
wind blows on cold plain

it shan't be hard, though
middle-earth is full of it
all is in nature

and commentary
dont do it in prose
or ill make you pay

on that very note
my haikus proper commence
right after this one


HELM'S DEEP
here the dead mount high
the forest overtakes all
only wind remains
