Thursday night at home
Dogs happily gnawing bones
Happy are my pets.

Just because it has two clutches, shifts faster, uses a torque converter or has near-infinite gear ratios, requires less driver intervention and is more efficient doesn't make it better in my opinion.

Actually, as I read in the boiok "One Hundred Frogs" the haiku is the beginning of a longer form called renga (2 to 100 alternating parts of 5-7-5 and 7-7).

The book by Hiroaki Sato has a long section of variations on Basho's famous haiku with responses. Also many english language haiku.

Basho's original (in Japanese it has the 5-7-5 scheme):
"An old pond: a frog jumps in_the sound of water."
