well, at least the pain of actually having to read a haiku is shortlived. I've seen so much contempt (veiled or otherwise) toward haiku over the years, sometimes from people who'd become apoplectic if their own favored styles were slurred. The personal taste perspective I understand though. To each their own.

Personally, the only poetry that makes me sick is really long-winded bad poetry. The short-winded I can usually live through.
