the oak by the septic tank
dips its roots

Hi Marc,

I'm sorry I offended you by critiquing a "joke" you were making. I assure you it didn't appear to be one.

I am also sorry I offended you by not critiquing the "American Haiku" as well.

Thank you for sincerely saying "Never mind." That's what we need in this world is more courtesy.

As for the "American Haiku," I've never heard of such a haiku. What is an American haiku? I call what you wrote a "senryu." As for myself, I prefer a 5-7-5 senryu.

Peggy
