Number One Haiku:
it needs no introduction,
and doesn’t get one.
.
Number Two Haiku:
not being the first born one
leaves quite a sour taste.
.
Number Three Haiku:
in the shadows of siblings
and left in that shade.
.
Number Four Haiku;
a mistake, sad, unwanted,
a loner by birth.
.
Number Five Haiku:
this one just doesn’t exist,
it’s an illusion.
.
Number Six Haiku;
as above for Number Five,
but even more so.
.
Number Seven Hai—
ku: which is where it goes wrong
as regards format,
.
and if you do want
Numbers Eight to Two Hundred…
you can write, can’t you?
