This is not a haiku.
October 9, 2010
                                
                                
                                Defiled by the dirt 
 of my own thoughts
 no water can rinse me clean.

I like the different and abnormal syllables and structure, however, my stupid perfectionist mind almost wants it to be in regular haiku form, so maybe play around with that? But overall I like the deep meaning of the poem. It really makes you think.
