I hate haiku because I've never read a good one (except for the times I have, which, was like.. twice). They're mostly simple observations about nature, and I don't like simple observations about nature. I like things that go in more depth. Haikus rarely do more than capture an instant, and they rarely seem to offer any... introspection, for lack of a better word. It's a personal preference, and a bias I have against just "showing" and nothing else. Basically, it bores me.
