Welcome, toecollector. FYI- the haikus in this thread should follow the 5/7/5 syllable format for each line.

Hoping to survive
the calamity, your line
breaks to fit the rules.

last vestiges of my pride—
he stole like a thief.

She believed she was,

Study the mirror.
What you reflect bounces back
to the eyes in front.
