1. Senryu, SenrYOU.
To make tax forms true
They should read "Income Owed Us"
And "Incommode You."

Even his Dean love.

unless it mentions a season.

6. Not the Haiku I'm Familiar With
There are a bunch of different kinds, IIRC. 5-7-5, no subject limitation is what I learned.

12. 5-7-5
is the most common pattern. But it's Senryu. If it mentions a season or some aspect of nature and humanity, it's Haiku.

8. Our local weekly newspaper...
...had a Haiku contest recently. My ABSOLUTE FAVORITE was one under the "Best NASCAR Haiku" category:

Quit staring at me
From my box of Wheaties
You fucking redneck!

Don't know who wrote it, but he or she should get a Pulitzer!

To change pumpkins into squash
Simply let them fall.

16. Morning mood pieces.
Sipping my coffee
Tapping away in the dark
Wishing time would stop.

What? You need my time?
Sure, why not. Go get in line.
That's my purpose, right?

Hey wait! Not yet, sun.
As long as you aren't rising,
I don't go to work.
