  I find it humerous that this haiku reads like a joke with a punch line.

A very interesting senryu. Bordering on cosmic. I like the visual clarity this evokes. Well written.

I just figured out what the title meant, Identified Flying Object.  Aliens are sick as hell, way to make Haiku’s futuristic.  I think this is really creative.  I doubt the ancient japanese ever suspected their poetry would be continued through the 21st century.

I have no idea why this made me laugh so hard. The fact that it was a natural reaction says good things about this poem. It is modern and quite dark. A spaceship seems like such a more horrendous item to be falling from the sky. All of man’s efforts at technological advance falling to decay. Good show…I hope I didn’t over think it :)

My sides ache from laughing. The last line is a great ironic twist.

This was very cute, and enjoyable to read. The way the last line is a very good line in relation to the piece. “No, just a space ship.” adds to the humor.
