How about a sonnet, or atleast a short passage from a potential one

I find the saddest thing about haikus,
Is their particular brand of ubiquity,
They seem the only form that people use,
With any kind of solemnity

'tis fascinating strange to write,
A sonnet when 'twas not requested
And yet it's how I think I'll spend this night,
In iambic solitude sequestered

The sonnet is the perfect form,
For me as it was for William Shakespeare,
And from my saddened eye is torn,
A single, glistening and reluctant tear

For the sonnet is the perfect poem,
But for me trochaic is the norm :'(
