atmosphere / fathomless
blue-lavender / lights

you? Zemi? )

over the Cliffs of Moher: hydration. absolution.

Science fiction haiku. Unfortunately, this does not include four of mine, as they have been accepted for publication but are not yet published, but as this new group opened up, I thought I'd go ahead and submit these to dA.

PE - SciFaiku Poetry FormWhat on earth is SciFaiku?
SciFaiku (science fiction haiku) is a minimalist science fiction poetry form similar to traditional haiku. According to Wikipedia (grain of salt guys), the earliest publication of SciFaiku was likely in 1962. It became known officially as SciFaiku in 1995 when the SciFaiku Manifesto was posted up by Tom Brink. (At the time of finalizing this article, the website is down; however, I have seen it go down and come back up before, so it's worth saving. They may be having server issues.)
How does one write SciFaiku?
SciFaiku is written like traditional contemporary haiku, and as such, SciFaiku seeks a sense of immediacy. A capture of a moment. A directness of expression, avoiding abstractions. A good SciFaiku does not make any judgments. Conveying a feeling of immediacy is important. Here's an example:
Digging up an ancient city,
finding the print

Overall Vision Originality Technique Impact1. I came to the conclusion you were talking about aliens, but this haiku does not have a clear plot. And I did notice you were trying to be crafty by using "datavised," but it also creates problems when trying to understand this piece.
2. One I believe has no need for adjustment. It's perfect.
3. A cute battleship pun.
4. Again good pun for wormholes.
5. What's an Arvnark?
6. Just bad.
7. I don't know if by reference to your "party animals," you're talking about the political parties, but it's never a good idea to mention politics unless you're writing with purpose.
