Default Oh No, I'm Feeling a Haiku Coming On!
At an old job I had, my co-workers and I used to email haiku's back and forth to each other.

Write a haiku about how you feel right now! Here are the rules:

1st line: 5 syllables
2nd line: 7 syllables
3rd line: 5 syllables

Here's mine:

It's midnight right now
I had two glasses of wine
I don't think I'll sleep

Alfonso, I love this one:

Too many donuts.
Nothing poignant, here, to say;
Just lots of donuts.

Did you write it? Oh, that's good stuff!!!!
