In Martin Walser\u2019s 1987 book Brandung, <\/em>about a German professor teaching abroad at the very un-German University of California, Berkeley\u2014a novel really not worth reading unless you are interested in German-English translation and able to read it in the Berkeley sun, to a whiff of eucalyptus or a glimpse of Mount Tamalpais, and even then I didn\u2019t finish it\u2014the professor overhears a bit of dialogue. A student steps into an elevator and says \u201cGoing up?\u201d; the one in the elevator says \u201cTrying to.\u201d The professor, \u201cwho did after all teach English back home, was crushed to realize, yet again, that he would never master this language.\u201d Not long afterward, he sees a campus newspaper headline, \u201cSex Blind Admission,\u201d and tries and fails to reconstruct the line in German. \u201cEnglish is a language for headlines,\u201d he thinks.<\/p>\n

I saw a headline myself in Berkeley, on the unbelievably trashy San Francisco Examiner<\/em>: \u201cCops Fear Pimp Turf War.\u201d Five punchy syllables, each pretty much any part of speech\u2014it took me a moment to understand what it meant, then I knew I had witnessed greatness. (I\u2019m not the only one who noticed: a weekly DJ night called \u201cCops Fear Pimp Turf War!<\/a>\u201d\u00a0sprang up a few months later in San Francisco.)<\/p>\n

It was walking in downtown Manhattan, on the other hand, past the new construction of, according to the slogan around the scaffolding, TWENTY INDIVIDUALLY-CURATED FINELY-CRAFTED CONDOMINIUM RESIDENCES<\/small>, that a couple hurried past and we heard the man say, \u201cThe problem is in this country people believe they deserve something … \u201d Whether his complaint targeted the members of the 1 percent who were building or planning to live in these super-creative residences, or the passersby resenting that they couldn\u2019t, or other groups altogether, it was also a classic example of American speech:<\/p>\n

\n

The problem is in
this country people believe
they deserve something<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It\u2019s not a haiku\u2014the haiku form has demands besides 5-7-5 syllables: seasonal key words (kigo<\/em>), one image, two moments with a turn or jump cut between them indicated by a \u201ccutting word\u201d (kireji<\/em>). It\u2019s the serendipitous, spoken, American form: the overheard haiku. <\/p>\n

I\u2019d heard about it from the poet Robert Hass, teaching a survey of American poetry course back at UC Berkeley and talking one day about speech rhythms. He mentioned something he\u2019d overheard while in D.C. as Poet Laureate: a man in not a $1,200 overcoat but an $800 overcoat (midnineties dollars)\u2014that means a lot, perhaps everything, in Washington\u2014had said,<\/p>\n

\n

Well if he\u2019d just been
focused he wouldn\u2019t even
have considered it<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

After paying attention and counting syllables for not very long at all, you can hear this form everywhere. The length of a thought\u2014in English? Or with average walking speeds? Or that you can remember when you\u2019re not really listening?\u2014seems naturally to fall into 5-7-5 syllables:<\/p>\n

\n

It\u2019s just, right now I
don\u2019t feel very much respect
for myself is all<\/p>\n

She has a home phone.
Who has home phones?\u2026 Yeah different
lifestyle\u00a0\u2026 Totally.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Or for that matter:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIndividually-
Curated Finely-Crafted
Residences\u201d? Please.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Around half a tweet, but again, a very different form. \u201cCops Fear Pimp Turf War,\u201d well less than a semi-demi-tweet, comes closer, because it is written: Twitter can share #overheardhaiku, but is not the medium for creating them.<\/p>\n

English is a great language for writing headlines, and tweets, but also for hearing haiku. You can\u2019t plan a phrase like this, craft it, present yourself to the world with it; it\u2019s something you run across, something the facts of the world and of language fall into. As though by chance. It\u2019s something you\u2019ve trained your ear to notice, a way of paying attention.<\/p>\n
