Meta Haiku

Dear Sir or Madam,
I would like to submit this haiku to your Haiku Contest, because I think it captures the essence of all the haikus that you are likely to receive, comments on the plasticity of this venerable form, and, in so doing, defends the form itself against formula and sentimentality. Oh, did I really say that? Sorry. Anyway, my haiku is as follows:

i touchy feely
something something something some
nonprofit name here

Sincerely,
Michael Erard
