- Impetuous = impulsive and intense passion
- Haphazardly = lack of plan, order, or direction

This haiku is contemporary due to its slightly advanced vocabulary. Classic haiku uses plain words everybody understands.

Contemporary Haiku is a Japanese short unrhymed poem that uses imagistic language to express the essence of a deeply felt moment in time. It resonates on a deeper level, leaving the reader enlightened and making an insightful connection. The most common literary adaptation in English of haiku looks something like this: one to four lines, no strict syllable count but brief. These poems too utilize a dash before the satori. Images need not be taken from nature, though they may be and often are. Seasonality is optional, though often featured. Is okay to use poetic devices.


EXAMPLE:
