Common #Haiku Mistakes #4: The Sentence

Not always a mistake, but usually a single sentence doesn't the strongest haiku make:

The sparrow
flies away into a dream
of dusk.

Not every ku needs a cut, but sentence ku often feel incomplete. Try:

sparrow flying
into a dream of dusk
the flavor lingers

Poetry is sometimes like going along in a big rig with no one else on the roads, no smoke, no stops by the wayside, going on with no cargo, the radio quiet, only the sound of your own voice trying to get in touch.

A friend of mine mentioned some people have been asking about the free form haiku they've been seeing on Bluesky, so I'm creating a step by step guide to writing a haiku. Feel free to respond to the last thread (#8) with your ku if you want feedback or to share!
