usoku

From the Japanese "uso"—meaning false, and "ku" meaning line or inscription.  The word Usoku is descriptive of attempts to apply and even to stretch the distinctly Japanese form of writing known as haiku to include forms of expression utterly alien to the original meaning of the term.  This includes attempts at writing "haiku" in Romance Languages—i.e. the misnomer of "English language haiku"—and absurd misapplications of the concept of haiku to graphic art as well as to pseudo-mathematical operations.
