Center alignment
Makes bug reports symmetric
Like flying saucers.

Space aliens are
Natural (and poetic),
Xenophobe pedants!

A lot of great haikus. Just a note though, haikus are not just just 3 lines with 5,7,5 syllables. It should appeal to the senses. A haiku should paint an image while you are reading it. If you want it more strict, it should hint about the season, so mention something about nature.

Now let's see more haikus with a lot more imagery!

I know, hence the flying saucers...

Shouldn't a haiku
be Japanese syllables?
I just write faikus.

(Seriously, I think I may have ever composed one proper English haiku. Since real poetry is, oddly enough, hard work, I just throw out half 90% of the rules and have fun instead.)

This haiku is so silky, romantic, tactile, lush, downright spousal. I loved it.

Early Adopter

A scent of perfume;
A new infatuation,
Object of desire.
