Borderlands 4 Review: Evolution not Required Most of my notes on Borderlands 4 were negative. Many aspects of this game are not good or even broken. Despite that, I will continue playing it, and here’s why.

Continuing our celebration of #InternationalHaikuDay with another Review Haiku for Borderlands 4:

Compelling story
Design choices stuck in past
Save some cash and wait

thegamesletter.com/borderlands-...

When I was a kid
I thought haikus were very
Unserious poems

but as an adult
I’ve come to appreciate
the form’s challenges

much as I once loved
writing within twitter’s old
character limits

dragonflies and pawprints

spilling out
from between fallen logs
young bloodroot

Only trying to help
A doctor prescribes a clown,
Sadly, to himself.

Photograph of a 1989 paperback copy of The Haiku Handbook on a wooden surface in sunlight. The cover includes the subtitle “How to Write, Share, and Teach Haiku,” lists the authors William J. Higginson and Penny Harter, and is decorated with blocks of pink, green, and blue.

Haiku happen all the time, wherever there are people who are ‘in touch’ with the world of their senses, and with their own feeling response to it.

— Higginson and Harter, The Haiku Handbook

Haiga/haiku: image, bordered in silver, has a light-blue background with wisps of white like clouds. On the left are four overlapping gradient silver rectangles with two large, fluffy, white pillows, each with a blue stripe at the edge, stacked as if on a comfortable bed; a white vase with lavender blossoms stands behind the pillows, and there is a suggestion of folded curtains along the left side. Haiku reads: “Midnight / spies my dreams on pale pillows / Secret life”

Majestic backdrop
Made for those who love to fish
Relaxing and chill

It's International Haiku Day!

Here are two contemporary ones I just wrote.

I was fourteen
when I first heard Annie
travel the world, the seven seas

I was forty
when Gaga was brand new
and I still don't care

International Haiku Day

#haiku #shortpoem #InternationalHaikuDay

International
Haiku Day. But did you know
It's about rhythm

The rhythm of the
Japanese language, but then
English ain't like that

The syllable thing
Is a simplification
For gaikokujin

Spring
