I tried using it against my Dad like the rookie I am:
isn't the last line 6 syllables? "Ruins" is two.
Depends on the accent really
But you could also say that word ruins his Haiku
Depends on dialect. Many people pronounce ruins similar to 'runes'.
They're wrong, but it happens.
What are we looking at here?
runes
LMAO im a silly goose
It's a Sokka haiku!
A Sokku if you will.
Where I'm from, we just pronounced it one syllable
