HAIKU TRAIN-: Building the Longest train 🚆on Substack
A haiku is a quiet moment made visible, just a few lines that hold a season, a feeling, a world.
Today, we begin something simple and ambitious:
THE HAIKU TRAIN ON SUBSTACK
Here’s how it works:
I’ll start with a haiku.
The last line becomes your first line.
You write the next haiku and someone else continues from you.
A chain of moments.
A shared rhythm.
One long, unfolding poem.
The goal?
To build the longest haiku train🚆on Substack together in 6 days.
morning light spills soft
across windows half-open
the day waits outside
The day waits outside
I am snuggled in the bed
It can keep waiting.

👉 Your line to continue: “the day waits outside”
Reply with your Haiku or Restack this Haiku as a Restack with a note and tag various artist as we build this train in public and keep the train moving and trackable .
Everyone is welcome, whether you’ve written haiku for years or this is your first.
Let’s see how far this can go in 6 days before we wrap it up with a post.
