My girlfriend just read my haiku about rice and she said that it was barely a haiku because I was just listing things. I think that she needs to take this class because she doesn’t seem to have a proper understanding of creativity.
She doesn’t know that creativity can come in all forms and is very subjective. I think that my haiku is creative because I really thought about what it is about rice that I like, as well as the different types of rice. Sure, the haiku is basic, but I took my thoughts and organized it into a haiku format which took some creativity.
