Poetry I don't get, I wish I did, and I only really vaguely get haiku's, but this makes perfect sense!!! So extra kudos for you :)

Thank you so much! I can't even remember the last time I studied poetry, so I really wasn't sure if this was going to work out at all, but I'm glad you thought so! ♥

Oh holy shite, that's amazing! Perfect haiku, with the proper meter and everything ~ and imparting deep insight into Sawyer's attraction to Sayid. How appropriate, putting haiku in the hands of the island's Word Man.

Brava! Encore!! Do it again!!!

*saves*

Oh, excellent! Wonderful use of the form, and so simple - perfect for Sawyer - and yet so powerful! Thank you! *hugs*

hopelessfangirl July 26 2009, 04:30:09 UTC

You're so very welcome! I'm glad I didn't butcher the whole thing! =)

hopelessfangirl July 26 2009, 04:29:17 UTC

Oh wow, thank you! I wasn't even entirely sure if I could do multiple stanzas with haikus, so I was sort of winging it. I'm really glad you enjoyed this and I'm flattered by your response! =)

Wow.
I am amazed.
Poetry never drew me in much before... but this is fantastic.
You've got some wonderful talent for haiku.
:)

I'm overwhelmed by such a positive response because I'm far from a poet, but I gave this my best shot. Thank you so much!

BUAH HA, that icon <33

Oh my gosh, look at you with a new 'ship and a new format and making it work beautifully ;) This is epic, sweets! Lovely job with the prompt!

LOL I wish I had a more srs bsns Sayid icon, but that's all I had. =P

I know, I totally stepped out of my comfort zone for this one! I'm so glad it worked and that you liked it, hun. ♥ Thank you!
