No, you're not writing haikus

The haiku master
He spins in his moldy grave
Teh LOLcatz! No want!

Umm…

I’m not quite sure what this is supposed to be, but I know what it ain’t.

We had a haiku thread recently, and it was clear that some people just thought a haiku was three short lines.

I rather liked it
Contained a winter kigo
Otherwise random

I lollerskated
all over the roflpond
and I was drunk too

There was an old man
From Peru, whose lim’ricks all
Look’d like haiku. He

Said with a laugh, “I
Cut them in half, the pay is
Much better for two.”

Haiku sounds to me
like Stands With A Fist as she
remembered the white man talk.

Bashō in the fall
Considering lolcats: “Do
not want. Kthxbai.”

The Marianas Trench
One time in nineteen sixty
for twenty minutes.

Haiku are three lines
With five-seven-five scansion
That’s it: Hi, Opal!

Not writing haiku?
I’ll be a monkey’s uncle!
Sure looks like haiku.

Falls out of the salad bowl.

Oh, yes, it’s “Godwin”.
