In a sharp break from the normal way of expressing oneself on the forums (you know, via extensive use of capslock and ascii art), a number of shamans are expressing their problems potetically via haiku. Never has it been more interesting and downright pleasent to read about class complaints. I think my favorite must be this one by poster Vapid for its inclusion of traditional imagery:Shaman drop to ground
Like the Spring Cherry Blossom
When faced with stunlock
So take a look -- or try your hand writing some shaman haiku of your own. (Remember, it's 5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 syllables.)

You also need some indication in what season the haiku is set. Every haiku has a season. That is why he used cherry blossoms in there (it's spring). Of course, he might just have used it because it's the stereotypical Japanese image.

@4, and @ this post in general.
TRADITIONAL Haiku doesn't all go 5-7-5, and most haiku artists will grimace when they hear someone say that. So don't tell people off for using different syllable rhythm.
And I play a Shaman, but I'm not that talented to make a haiku :(

A new WoW day born,
Toman needs a shower soon;
Shaman tears cleanse him.
In all seriousness though, clearcasting was pretty good as it was. I feel for you, guys.
