I know it’s a haku but I’m not sure I understand until I read it three- four times. It’s pretty cool that it’s like a raid rounding up strays standing in a line but you used syllables and thoughts as the people in the raid! Creative!

Very creative. I like the thought of Haiku Police like fashion police. I like the last line the most. It took me a moment to catch it but the idea of standing thoughts in line, as if they are waiting their turns to get their mugshots is wonderful imiagery. Good.

This is tightly woven. I like the unique feel of this. A twist on words using words. Good job!

dear Creator,
this was very humorous…”Standing thoughts in line.”...could definitely see a real haiku police force…imagery was great…”Rounding up stray syllables,”

Haha, nice thought. Very good. The last line is the breadwinner.

I must admit, I’ve never really been a great fan of Haiku. I’m also not sure what is considered good form.
So, in my pea-brained understanding and appreciation of the artform, I will say that i thought this was a cool one.
I enjoyed the concept of your Haiku!
I think if there was a haiku anthology, you could make it in there with this one. It’s cute (really can’t find a better word)
Well done

HA, this was genius. I’ve never written a Haiku before, and I probably never will, but that doesn’t stop me from enjoying reading them!

I liked this.  The metaphor of the Haiku police rounding up words like the real police round up people.  It struck me as funny.

Excellent.
