Writing a poem's
As easy as it is to
Fall off a planet

Actually, this is a senryu more than a Haiku I think, but regardless, this is about the truest poem I've read in quite some time! (and humorous too!)

Yes, you're right, it is a senryu. There wasn't room to address the consideration that writing a poem ought to be difficult because you're trying to do something very precise.
