The definition of less than perfect is... fluid :)<br /><br />Hah, I am impressed that you managed to get an acrostic in there while still continuing the story. And it's a neat little continuation as well.<br /><br />Ivy - I really like the second haiku portion of your continuation, I feel like it nicely sums up the central character. I think I'll have to bring this back just to see where things end up going from here.Marchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14952331166517430843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1149217012399643733.post-72199437521679439922015-06-17T20:50:28.356-07:002015-06-17T20:50:28.356-07:00There came a cry: “Help!

That's interesting, and probably harder than the acrostics I've been trying for too :) It makes it pretty much impossible to choose a favourite haiku today though, since they're forming a story, but let me say that I particularly like the sign's message in your second.<br /><br /><b>Continued</b><br />Stormclouds gather strength,<br />The sirocco picks up sand,<br />And a stranger knocks.<br /><br />Blades slice through the air,<br />Blood falls like morning dewdrops:<br />"Yield stranger!
