Modern English Haiku or ME Haiku is a new form of haiku that follows the 5 / 7 / 5 / 2 pattern of syllables with one repetition: 5 / 7 / 5 / 2 and 5 / 7 / 5 / 2. Architect by me, ArchDuke Kenneth.

The traditional Japanese haiku's "on" or "beats" as known in the English verse, has a 5 / 7 / 5 pattern of syllables and no repeat.

Political Diet

 

There is no set rule

The law is vague in dealing

With people who break

Into

 

Convince that they’re one

Both of them switch side to pay

Your army of one

Angry
