Modern English Haiku or ME Haiku is a new form of haiku that follows the 5 / 7 / 5 / 2 pattern of syllables with one repetition: 5 / 7 / 5 / 2 and 5 / 7 / 5 / 2. Architect by me, ArchDuke Kenneth.

The traditional Japanese haiku's "on" or "beats" as known in the English verse, has a 5 / 7 / 5 pattern of syllables and no repeat.

Ruling Class

 

Ethics grow blurry

When honest people get hurt

For reason made known

Old case

 

Blame it on someone

For something else it can be

A perfect system

Gone wrong
