Elves are cannibals
Kill them all in painful ways
Want a dwarf kebab?

Oh Elvish Kebab,
Hugging wood even in death,
Maybe Elves are gay?

Toady typically doesn't do things by half measures.  As evidenced by turning "make hauling work better" into "implement mine carts with physics".
There are many issues with this statement.

The elves have come back,
Seeking a lost caravan...
Closing gate quickly.

What a perfect day.
I think I will step outside...
Run!  Zombie Marmots!

Dreaming dwarven babe,
cooing in her crib.  Empty
ale barrels abound.

Any good dwarf doc
knows his patients are in pain.
Be back in the fall!

A dwarvern holiday,
Watching elves burn in magma,
A good time was had.

The dwarf digs for life
But the dark has blinded him
He digs his own tomb


Grand vaulted caverns
Dwarven hearts are filled with pride
But they still echo


Gold bought a new realm
Steel forged eternal peace
Only dust remains


Baubles and trinkets
What is the measure of worth?
Blood, bone and sinew

Apparently having a redundant creature entry causes the game to say, "Oh, look, it's crazy world now. Nothing makes sense! Alligators live in houses!"

As a speaker of Japanese I've noticed that one defining quality of Japanese Haiku is how limited they are in content. 5 syllables can be used as roughly 3 syllables in Japanese if you look at comparisons between average English and Japanese word length. I think English Haiku should be 3-5-3 instead of 5-7-5. That being said,
