    She checks your phone to see if you’re cheating

    but all she finds

    Is Star Trek memeing

    Not sure if it fits a haiku pattern, but how about that?

      Haikus are 7-5-7 for syllable patterns. This would be the correct lines:

      She checks your phone to see if

      you’re cheating but all

      she finds is Star Trek memeing

      I went to check because the rhythm felt wrong. Haikus are 5-7-5. We’re two syllables too long. Maybe this would work:

      She checks your phone to

      see if you cheat but all she

      finds are Star Trek memes

        Now a limerick!
        A young Vulcan once lived in Nantucket
        His logic so sharp he could… I don’t know what to put next.

          There once was a Vulcan from Nantucket

          With a logic so sharp he could pinch hit

          In an old human game

          Which he loses, so lame

          and the rhyme for Nantucket? Amok it.

            A Vulcan they called Mister Jibbles
            once had a basket of tribbles
            they bred all night long, multiplied by the dawn
            and caused lots of trouble mayhem and giggles!

            EDIT: take a wild guess
            EDIT2: the Vulcan with logical giggles!
