There are hundreds of rules for the many kinds of Japanese ku. Hai'ku, as we know it, is a three line poem about an element of nature.
The syllable count of 5,7,5 is used. The poem should be in two parts. Two lines naming the subject and explaining an action or attribute, and one line contradicting or changing the subject.
*****
Many crows waiting
Cackling birds in the corn field
The wind does not blow
*****
The contradictory line can be at the beginning or the end.

A haiku's a poem that follows a 5-7-5 syllable format, so it looks something like this:
Line 1 - 5 syllables
Line 2 - 7 syllables
Line 3 - 5 syllables
- The first line has 5 syllables, the second line has 7 syllables and the third line has 5 syllables.
It's usually used as a poem for nature and deep emotion, but it can be used for silly things as well.

Coin commemorates
Accomplishments of a king.
A man begs for food.
Standard 5-7-5...with a reverse in the end line...not a compliment to the first two. Did not have any words denoting the season...should have.
Fuji. Always snow.
Gods walk barefoot, with laughter.
Steam rises from pools.
Season is winter...as snow and Fuji denote. Comparison in line 3, and contrast.

Mike Jones. WHO? Mike Jones.
Nothing close to Mike Jordan.
Mike Jones. WHO? Mike Jones.
(That's a haiku, I think)
(two five-syllable lines, with a 7-syllable line between)

Haikus are a silly Japanese joke. They are not proper poety; just a few words thrown together and admired by gullible westerners.
