Ten shots at a Xeno bug;
Nine miss, and one teammate shot;
The rookies are doomed;

I love the fact that
Most of these don't follow the
five-seven-five rule.

my one is six-six-and five,
but easy to fix.

Regardless of that
I think I just created
A haiku combo.

I know this isn't
On topic, well too bad for

EDIT: Most are fixed
Now this is a real haiku
thread. May it prosper.

clip. Says quite enough.

I know it's not that
