it's pretty common though ususally it consists of a haiku and a two line follow on then another haiku etc. usually two or more people take part in the thing which is called a hokku. it consted of 7 lines total.(which is a line as we know it but not in actuality because it was in japanese Big Grin.). i'm not sure but i think it was from this that basho and co devise the haiku (by anothor name i can't remember)
