Your Haiku, Please?
We concluded our Top 50 Brain Teasers post with the challenge:
#50. Can you write a haiku describing your experience doing some of the previous teasers? The simple rules: write 3 lines, which don’t need to rhyme, containing 5,7, and 5 syllables. There were a number of great and fun takers…you can enjoy their haikus below.
Let’s now change the theme: Can you write a haiku describing what problem you would like to see brain research solve? Remember the simple rules: write 3 lines, which don’t need to rhyme, containing 5,7, and 5 syllables. You can leave your haiku as a comment for extra points…

Brain training others
Like watching the Earth open
One thought at a time
My brain stem works hard,
But the tests are much harder,
Need more grey matter
Can perform better,
Learning, training, and practice
Body, brain and mind
Solve the big questions:
How do I know when I know?
Who knows the knower?
Who knows the knower
who deeply knows the knower?
Techne, this is hard!
strokes take speech away
someone should find a quick fix
everyone needs to speak
Aha, a challenge
for the brain to endeavour
sooner than later
Playing music feeds
my soul while reading music
nurtures my old brain.
improving function
smoked too much weed in college
it’s never too late
It is morning now
The sun rose very early
Goodmorning to you
first white is purple
or it was red I think
now haiku, what next?
I thought so damn Hard.
My brain built lots of pressure.
I farted out loud.
very aesthetic contemporaries.….
Answers are easy
After you click on the link
To look them all up
I thought is was fun.
Then it got a lot harder.
Wow i suck at this.
oh boy I wonder
will my teeny little ears
still hear loud thunder
of course it is true
the aforementioned thunder
came out of the blue
from the blue you say
I think perhaps you are wrong
but it’s still okay
Brain hurts so badly
Working night shift: not so fun
Need to get some sleep
Neuroplastic good.
Plastic, though lasts forever.
Always recycle!
My haiku:
Can brain research prove
that the placebo effect
is better than drugs?
Don’t you dare to say
Only 3 percent I’ve used
After all these brain tease?!
So hard yet so fun
And a haiku in the end
Who are you people!?
Thank you for all the beautiful haikus!
Behrooz, good question,
the source of hard fun we are,
for your brain power!
haikus are not hard
but they stimulate the brain
too much for today
(I guarantee that this one does hide a question regarding brain research that I am interested in…if you still need a hint, think caps)
