Welcome to our haiku workshop!

Tattered rules and fashioned them

I agree with Polly's comments, it is a run-on sentence, and not a fragment and phrase. You need some sense images, something tangible-you have that in L3. Can you do that for L1 & 2?

TRhank you for entering out haiku workshop. Although this describes very vividly a subject, it seems more of just a statement that is broken into 3 lines. The haiku should consist of a sense images in the present tense rahter than statements. It should be like a snapshot in time.
