I wrote this letter to Domu, because of a travesty.


Dear Domu Advertising Department,

It has come to my attention that you have a newer ad claiming to have a haiku written on it. But it is not a haiku.

I take haikus very seriously as I am building my career around them. http://wearefancypants.blogspot.com/2013/03/typo-haiku.html?m=1

A haiku is a poem that is characterized by having 5 syllables in the first line, 7 in the second line, and 5 again in the third and final line.

Your ad reads
"My apartment rocks,
In-unit washer/dryer,
I found it on domu."

The third line contains six syllables, and therefore it cannot be categorized as a haiku.
This must come as a huge embarrassment to not only your advertising department, but also to your whole company.

I feel the only way you can manage your reputation is to immediately fire all parties involved in the scandal, issue a public apology, and hire me to proof read everything.

Time to wrap this up,
Contact me through my email,
Sincerely Lizzy.

(PS That was a closing haiku, just to show you how they come so easy to me.)
