Its Haiku!

Ok, This one probably one be as busy as many but here we go.

Explanation:
The most common form for Haiku is three short lines. The first line usually contains five (5) syllables, the second line seven (7) syllables, and the third line contains five (5) syllables. Haiku doesn't rhyme. A Haiku must "paint" a mental image in the reader's mind. This is the challenge of Haiku - to put the poem's meaning and imagery in the reader's mind in ONLY 17 syllables over just three (3) lines of poetry! source! (http://volweb.utk.edu/school/bedford/harrisms/haiku.htm)

Rules:

Your Haiku must be yours, Not copied from someone else.

Your image must be yours, Not stolen from someone else.

You must post only 1 picture with a Haiku. You can not post another one until either someone else has posted or until 24 hours after your previous post.

All Haiku's must be accompanied with an image, After all its a photography site :)

Although your poem does not need to rhyme or have to make sense to others it MUST be kept with in the rules of the forum.

So. What you have to do is quite simply post an Image with a Haiku about the image.

Do not worry, you can see from mine, They don't need to be very good either but it starts the game. :)

For crime I must fight,
Too much pain and anguish here,
For Sleep I cant get.

Schrodinger's Cat is
In a box, alive and not
A Felis Zombie

(Google "Schrodinger's cat" if you're not familiar with the concept. "Felis" is Latin for "cat"))
