five and seven and five oh my

Traditionally, a haiku meets the following requirements:

It has three lines.
It has five syllables in the first and third lines.
It has seven syllables in the second line.


"i roll" [note: 3 syllables if we roll (Lol) the roll)
[seven syllables]
[five syllables]

If you're being very traditional, a haiku should also include a reference to a season. And be in Japanese. So, strictly speaking, the who idea of "traditional" doesn't apply to haiku in English. So anything goes!

There once was a Mag
With big arms and Gucci bag
This line doesn't rhyme.
 
A corner sofa so passé
Gucci belt top revenue
I am not a shop.

I'm not a racist
Some of my best friends are black
Blue passports fill the void

It's three AM please help
F M L i need some sleep
Alarm is set for five.
