As I mention in the video, it's simply roll a bunch of dice with words on them and use those words to create a haiku, which is a three-line poem with the first line containing five syllables, the second line having seven syllables and five syllables for the last line.
Here's this morning's haiku:

Now you have started something. I like the Haikube - and the Haiku that grew out of you head. BSD
All your blogs are a Sunday morning treat. I always marvel at the round-about way your brain works. BSD
