Perfect message, but sadly
Is missing two beats.

I'm sorry to criticize, NooNoo! As far as actual poetry goes, I doubt anybody here will come up with something better than what you have offered. You get 5.9 out of 6 instead of the perfect score ONLY because the haiku format is supposed to have seven syllables in the second line instead of five.
I'll freely admit you're a better poet than I am!
Oh Clam, I wasn't competing and I thought yours was great.
I guess thats what comes of being a straight A student in english!
The trouble with 7 syllables in the middle is you have to either use words that people have to look up in the dicitionary, or the line is too long.
So I chose to bend the format slightly.
And I bet you someone comes up with something better than me within 24 hours!

Five, seven, and five
Is what you should remember
When writing haikus.
Pleases me to know
That I'm making people count
With drumming fingers.
sad miserable
am I by myself
think I will go
break something
ehhh crap... does that count?
I love my tech job
Microsoft is a big must
To make some money
Windrivers is here
To help us through a long day
just sit and post away
haikus are so dumb,
why would someone waste their time
writing these dumb poems?
