    Dripping irogue petals (sorry, I don't know what irogue is)
    Dark and running down my face
    I'm in love with The Vinegar Man and Mr. Tanner, but be careful, it could just as easily be you.

    In this case, rogue means stray. A rogue is a rebel or a crook.

    Hi to you, alakungfu. I hope you know I wasn't being a smart one. I really thought irogue might be a word. I certainly understand rogue, so I think the haiku works, don't you?

    I agree, ampoule, the last haiku did work.
