Please correct mistakes
Bad haiku weakens mojo
Get it together
Genuine problem
Edits aren't available
Soon after posting

Much more important
To count syllables this year
Before you hit Post

Write five, seven, five
Reread, counting syllables
Then, edit or post

so your second line
I am only counting six right?
that is highlighted
I'm counting seven
OK, sev-en sev-en, six
2. Plus 4. Plus 1.

As to your haiku
Line 2: Change "I am" to "I'm"
Or, get rid of "right"

Or maybe I'm wrong
Counting IS crazy-making
Plus, a new season!

Its gameday at uconn
Adrillene is flowing
Cant wait for offense and defense
To shine

Let's go uconn
Comes from the stands
Home and away

Let's go uconn
Bring home a W

Adrillene's sobbing:
"That wasn't haiku, and it's
not even game day!"

Haiku is rule-bound
First line is 5 syllables
Then 7, then 5

Anything other
than 5, then 7, then 5?
Keep it to yourself

As to, "It's gameday"
That was yesterday, Chosen
Maybe sleep it off?

My friend online told me about the structure of a haiku and so here is my huskies haiku

I am a huge fan
Obsessed fan I know I am
It is all I know

If you want to become great
See you on the Wall at home
And on a banner

One play at a time
Score on that play and focus
Stop the opponent

Let's go get a win
It will be very special
In my heart and soul
