    I’d love to see this in haiku form, but it doesn’t fit the rhythm

    She checks your phone to see if you’re cheating
    but all she finds
    are star trek memes

      She checks your phone to see if you’re cheating

      but all she finds

      Is Star Trek memeing

      Not sure if it fits a haiku pattern, but how about that?

        Haikus are 7-5-7 for syllable patterns. This would be the correct lines:

        She checks your phone to see if

        you’re cheating but all

        she finds is Star Trek memeing

        I went to check because the rhythm felt wrong. Haikus are 5-7-5. We’re two syllables too long. Maybe this would work:

        She checks your phone to

        see if you cheat but all she

        finds are Star Trek memes

          Now a limerick!
          A young Vulcan once lived in Nantucket
          His logic so sharp he could… I don’t know what to put next.

            There once was a Vulcan from Nantucket

            With a logic so sharp he could pinch hit

            In an old human game

            Which he loses, so lame

            and the rhyme for Nantucket? Amok it.

              A Vulcan they called Mister Jibbles
              once had a basket of tribbles
              they bred all night long, multiplied by the dawn
              and caused lots of trouble mayhem and giggles!

              EDIT: take a wild guess
              EDIT2: the Vulcan with logical giggles!
