Plug my Phone In (Haiku) by jessicazee
He's teaching school now, the elements the chart says, waking together coffee, chemistry ten morning minutes sacred before the bell rings two alarms chime on we parking ticket ourselves, your plug fits in mine

Up the ladder: Sunrise On The Slag Heap
Down the ladder: Sudden Change

Possible changes : replace -chemistry- it's understood in the previous line.

I think you can move -sacred- between ten and morning, and do no harm.

the parking ticket is clunky BUT interesting. Odd is good. Can you soften it a little?

The plug line bugs me. Too forward, I think.

Overall, I really like what you've built.

I also think you're under appreciated around here. I hope you are not relegating yourself to this site only.

Very well done--and I agree with INTRANSIT about you being under appreciated. Keep up the good work.

The second stanza is perfect (perhaps change the position of 'sacred' as our trucker suggests). "He's teaching school now" wants editing, in my opinion and the last line is very abrupt. Maybe that's what you were after though?
