Haiku not Haka?!? Challenge 10

Australian Rugby 

have declared that the All Blacks' haka

is "unsportsmanlike" and describe it as "a sideshow".

The International Rugby Board have agreed and have ruled that a 
haiku, not a haka
must be performed by the All Blacks at the final of the Rugby World Cup.

Your challenge is to write a haiku 
that the All Blacks can use instead of the haka.

What is a Haiku?

  • Haiku poems consist of 3 lines. 
  • The first has 5 syllables, the middle line has 7 syllables and last lines of a Haiku have 5 syllables.
  • The lines do not have to rhyme.


Example 1    


haiku or haka
doesn't matter on game day
still world's number 1


Example 2
All Blacks are the best
Australians are way NOT
poor English, but oh so true!

Example 3
collisions and pain
we're so tough we do not care
victory is ours!
