How about my second Mars Haiku for this dreary Monday?

Not being a fan of Haiku, I wouldn't have a clue, but to give it a name like American Haiku just doesn't sound that plausible to me since Haiku is a Japanese word, and American is not. But as I say, I have read less than a dozen that actually said anything, regardless of syllables. Keep trying, who knows, I may find that I like them someday. After all, I did like the last one you did, and this one also had something to say, so in my book, that makes you somewhat of an expert.

haikus r
1st line: 5 sylables
2nd line: 7 sylables
3rd line: 5 sylables
urs is
1st line: 7 sylables
2nd sylables: 6 sylables
3rd line: 5 sylables

u got 1 rite!

I don't see anything wrong with it, because it stays true to the form 7, 5, 7, it is only reversed a little 7,7,5. I also love the many different images one can connote from these nineteen syllables. Are we taming a god? Or are we drifting to another planet? Thank you so much for this vivid leap into the minimalistically tailored imagination. Bravo.

(Mars Attacks! Jack holds out hope while Tom Jones sings. Poor Danny, he just gets vaporized.) Now do you really want to pin your hopes on Mars? There had better be some great poems to start, this would be in there, whatever the syllable count.

Mars is Venus in disguise ...

Neoman is adding strange folks (to the crew?)!
Where is my Dramamine...no, not for the Haiku...which I did like.
Perhaps, since Donde is confused, (not likely) we could start calling it American ...hmmm...pondering.
You go, Granny!

Now this I like! (But, I suppose only because it breaks the Haiku rules and isn't then a Haiku - despite having read that American Haikus don't have to obey the rules)

That is like writing a 10 line poem, with rhyming couplets throughout and then saying It's an American Sonnet.

Great as always

This is really great Elaine...really great because of that last line...
'Mars is earth's last hope'...
and if we continue this line in the mythological sense, we could come to a point where Homer's great epic could be re-written! or atleast could be altered slightly...no! that's a great web, all inter-connected...so one change made at one spot will tumble the whole mechanism...
great one Elaine...and thanks for the wonderful thoughts you put into this...
