Get Started

How well can you describe an entire album, film, or book in only 3 lines of exactly 5 syllables, 7 syllables, and 5 syllables?

This is Haiku Reviewer – a collection of reviews in the style of Japanese ‘haiku’ poems.

For example, can you include some background on a band, something about one of their albums, and also include a review of whether you think it’s any good or not?

Can you fit all this into such a small space?

That’s the challenge.

If you look closely you’ll see that all of the reviews on this site are in haiku format.

It may take you a while to write your first one, but after that you may find that just keep thinking of them!

Submissions and comments are welcome – enjoy!
