    It's so quiet now
    Is it surprising, the time?
    At least it's peaceful

    In my cell's comfort
    Meet winter's chill; open arms
    — bent, bare-bone branches

    Blues, joy,
    calm, fear...
    You almost have to not care
    for it to go away.

    Crying on the stairs
    Her dad is picking her up
    This is not our fault

    Eyeliner on point
    Kiss me, let's start this off right
    I miss my girlfriend.

    5-7-5 isn't a strict rule and even famous Japanese poets stray from it if need be. What's more relevant is drawing parallels between opposing ideas introduced in the haiku, or suggesting a deeper look into the relationship of the two. Writing meaningful, short haiku in English is unnecessarilly difficult because articles eat a syllable or two out of every line.

    a brush strokes the eyes
    — canvas of poems: a taut mind.
    Why aren't both paintings?

    Boobs are annoying.
    When will my binder get here?
    Getting on my nerves.
