Classes have begun,
Time to listen to lectures
That are long and dull.

Don't fall asleep now.
You must listen and write fast
So you can pass tests.

Saw the big city
Wish that I could go back there
How I loath this place.

This might sound quite strange
But the aliens know me well
I have a spaceship

On a lighter note:

Chickens amuse me
I wonder if they can fly?
Apparently not.

And another:

Darkness everywhere
I run but can't escape it
Another Starbucks

Watching basketball
Is fun and quite exciting
When players can shoot.

The duck and a man,
He catches it and cooks it,
It is dinner time.

Dreams may not come true,
But the vigilant pursuit
Of them makes life real.

Children run and play
Causing chaos everywhere.
They are the future.

Fear is a feeling
That can be overwhelming,
But I will prevail.

A boring essay
That I must write for English
To get a good grade.

Bored out of my mind
Got nothing to do ever
So I run and play.

Grab a credit card,
Head to an expensive store
And spend like crazy.

Reality shows
On people's televisions
Forcing them to read.

Here's some more.

What is it you ask,
That I hold in my two hands?
It's a small puppy.

Steroids and baseball,
Congress is having a fit,
And the Lakers suck.

Driving an old car
May not make you cool like me
But you save money.

People like pizza.
Thin crust is my preference.
Must be delivered.

I Don't like haiku's
They seem too short and boring
They really bore me


FAVORITE MOVIES:
1. Clerks
2. Mallrats
3. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
4. Napoleon Dynamite
5. American Beauty
6. Spanglish
pretty much any kevin smith flick or movie with Adam Sandler.

Okay, now I'm mad.

I happen to be a very big fan of Haikus and Senryus.  And the definition of them given here is completely false.

The old Japanese Haiku had 17 Onji, which is not exactly a syllable.  The english word "ran" has to Onji, and the word "rain" has three.  

The modern/Western Haiku has no syllable limit, and can even be two lines long.  It is however a short poem that of a very specific type.

1)  A haiku is about nature.  Not about human nature, but about regular nature.  A frog jumping into a river, or a tree shedding a leaf.

2)  A haiku paints a still picture or a short scene, using senseory perceptions.  Basically, it follows the script-writing rule "show it, don't tell it".  It deals in sight, sound and smell, but not with thought.

A Senryu is similar, but deals in human nature.

An old Haiku of mine:

Brown creature, green leaf
Wings rubbing together
"CRIK-ET, CRIK-ET

Some find Haikus boring, but I don't.  They paint a very clear picture with only a few words, and make you wonder.
