A short example:

For each break taken
I return no more aware
Whose ass I must kiss


---

Lighten up while you still can
don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand
and take it easy

These are required for any app. Failure to do so can lead to a automatic deny.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haiku

A Haiku is three short lines. The first line contains five (5) syllables, the second line seven (7) syllables, and the third line contains five (5) syllables.
Haiku doesn't rhyme. A Haiku must "paint" a mental image in the reader's mind.
This is the challenge of Haiku - to put the poem's meaning and imagery in the reader's mind in ONLY 17 syllables over just three (3) lines of poetry!
