Hello:

Prior to learning about haiku, I loved to read "found" poetry and created some myself. Most are pretty long and the only one with a semblence to haiku is this:

Every Animal A Trophy  

(Minnesota hunter discussing
what a Trophy should really mean)
 

 
every animal
buck or doe, calf or fawn -
trophy

Found poetry has a long history, and found haiku in poetry has regularly been used over the years, and occasionally found haiku in the news.

Maybe it could have its separate topic, and perhaps we might end up with some shasei haiku eventually?

Not found haiku, but you might like to read Haiku News: http://www.wayfarergallery.net/haikunews/

Enjoy! ;-)
