Supernatural Haiku

our dad is on a hunting trip, and hasn’t been home in a few days

He’d want us to pick up where he left off. You know, saving people, haiku-ing things: the family business.

this is why: this book saving people, hunting things - family business

This unconventional companion to your next marathon Supernatural binge-session contains over six thousand haiku (only five of which are about Patrick Swayze).

haiku - all fifteen seasons: three hundred twenty seven episodes

Each episode is reduced to syllabically-restricted three-line poetry, capturing the most famous, the fan-favorite, and the charmingly flippant lines from 15 years of this popular TV series.

This book is not intended to be consumed by itself, nor is it meant to be read cover-to-cover. This book is meant to serve as an episode guide - a poetic companion to Supernatural, complete with appendices and the occasional footnote.

what makes a story work? and who gives it meaning? the writer? or you?

So pop some popcorn, settle in to your Dean-Cave, and flip this book open to the next episode. We got work to do.
