Sokka's Haiku Battle (Avatar)

I'm so sorry.
Something struck my rear.
I just...wound up...here.

5, 7, then 5
Syllables mark a Haiku
Remarkable oaf.

They call me Sokka,
That is in the water tribe.
I am not an oaf.

Chittering monkey
In spring he climbs tree tops
And thinks himself tall.

Sokka- You think you're so smart
With your fancy little words
This is not so hard.

Whole seasons are spent
Mastering the form the style
None calls it easy.

I calls it easy.
Like I paddle my canoe,
I'll paddle yours too!

There's nuts and there's fruits
In fall the clinging plumb drops
Always to be squashed.

Squish, squash, sling that slang.
I'm always back at ya,
Like my... boomerang!

That's right, I'm Sokka,
It's pronounced with an "okka",
Young ladies, I rocked ya!

Then Sokka gets kicked out because his last line had one to many syllables.
