Just read [url=http://tw.forumosa.com/t/does-anyone-else-see-this-on-the-right-side-of-the-page/37490/4 post[/url] and thought we should help Gus out by providing him with ten words to fill a bit of spare space. (I guess it could have a title too.)
My effort:

Thread about haikus
in competition no less
has been done before
Yeah, but that was real haikus. I’m talking about Gustavo needing ten-word blurbs.
You WELSH bastard! I won’t be able to get to sleep tonight. I’ll be tossing and turning all night. Thanks a lot - just what I needed after last night’s sheep-poodle-induced insomnia.
This is too easy
I am making perfect sense

I was thinking maybe a few haiku that would let others know what we’re all about. To wit (or not), my humble advert placeholder offerings:
Stereotyping
Overgeneralizing
Keeping you informed
Have something to share?
I hope so cause I sure don’t
I will post today

Yeah, didn’t mean to criticize. Just thought I’d link back to some of the old haikus— most of which I thought fit this topic pretty well. Thought it might add to the thread.
But within the constraints of the 5-7-5 haiku I couldn’t say all of that.
explaining ideas
in haiku rigid measure
is not that easy
For a serious contribution, how about:

‘Not even a proper haiku. And not just because it’s not in Japanese anyway.’
