In this day and age of texting everything now has an abbreviation. Even the poetry art form of Haiku has been shortened. In February of 2010 Michael Bowes of Lancaster, Ohio has created this new type of poetry Called Textku. A standard Haiku has 17 syllables However a Textku has 17 syllables / letters or numbers as well as a haiku once it has been translated back to standard English

This example could be a message between two girlfriends.

Textku Example: OMG BF POV 831 GTG HAK

Translated Example: Oh My God Best Friend Point Of View I Love You Got To Go Hug And Kiss
