“Haiku number 6,

Alright, let’s get into it.

Shit – I’m out of room.”

edit: This is so not what I expected from the comments, and I'm very pleased with it. Have fun folks!

      In fact the modern concept of an English haiku is just that it's short... And has 2-3 lines... Also usually a reference to nature

    The trick to haikus Is to keep them going so You are really just Writing a sentence With very poor formatting. Until you run out Of words and now you Have to do a whole 'nother Stanza to finish.
