How much can you say on the topic in 17 syllables?
My time is my own
Slave to the man no more, I
Do as I please now

Good thought, but a *traditional* haiku is 5-7-5 based on the Japanese tradition. I tend to be a traditionalist.Alarm clocks are no more,
Coffee aroma
Stirs me from slumber
Heh -- actually yours is as correct from the 17 syllable standpoint. I had never heard of the claim that in English, the number of syllables on a line don't matter...I knew I shouldn't have posted on this thread...
I love it when I master a subject on the first attempt...Or maybe we should just use Mr. Garrison's definition from South Park: A haiku is just like an English poem, except it doesn't rhyme and it's totally stupid.
