Haiku - not

I was reading a book on haikus last time I flew out West. The long flight was made shorter when I started looking around for writing material.

The fun these days is to do free form 3-line poems. You can cheat on the number of syllables and not worry about ancient rules of content. Basically, you just write an evocative three-line poem with a twist. It's fun if you're the kind of person who gets engrossed in crossword puzzles...
Now I can't find an old one so I will try and create one now on the fly (no pun intended):

Yawning
Sensory overload
I turn off the music

(I was trying to compose something with Wyclef Jean playing in the background)
Feel free to comment in haiku form...
