And now for something completely different (another haiku game)
Add one line to each
unfinished haiku above
Then start a new one.
What does this mean?

Poster B: Adds the second line to A's haiku, and begins his own haiku
Poster C: Finishes A's haiku, continues B's haiku and starts his own haiku.
First haiku will start with this line:
