Actually, while that is by far the most common format for a haiku, it is technically NOT a set-in-stone requirement. Masters like Basho or Issa, for example, did not always follow the 5-7-5 format, and it is even less important in English than it is in Japanese.

In fact, if people are hung up on the requirements of a haiku, it is much more important that a season be invoked in the poem (either implicitly or explicitly).

Mix it up a little

There once was a boy named Barack
All he could do was talk
Then Palin came 'round,
smacked him to the ground
and Arfcom exclaimed "SHE ROCKS"

Great work so far, everyone, but I almost fell out of my chair from this one.
