No wonder why this is everywhere:

  The hungry white ape

  aches in the ancient canyon.

  Autumn colors crunch.

According to the overview on the of hipku website, it uses only monosyllabic words, unlike this haiku.
That's not entirely true - it only uses monosyllabic words for IPv6 addresses because there's no other way to fit enough bits into the right number of syllables.

For IPv4 addresses, there's loads of space, so I can afford to use some longer words.
