While this icebreaker is designed for Pod Together 2013 participants, everyone is welcome to play regardless of whether they're signed up for the challenge, let alone involved with a poetry project.

If you're trying to get at the heart of an idea, there's nothing like articulating it as a haiku to distill it down to its essence. And if you can do it with dissertations, you can do it with anything.
So! Your mini challenge, should you chose to accept it, is to brainstorm in haiku. Got a premise or plot bunny you're considering? Tell us about in haiku. Got more than one? Give each its own haiku. Partway through the project or already done? Tell us the haiku version anyway.
And yes, by all means, cheer each other on when you see something you want to give props to! (And bonus if you do it in haiku.)
