Today’s word was quite the challenge for Haiku because it is, on its own a high syllable word…but in light of tragedies this week in Roanoke, Va, where I live…a relevant word to consider…offering a bit a irony…
Haiku Opprobrious
Truth is revealed
through opprobrious actions
Tables set for tea

Like your example. Here’s mine:
The opprobrious
Acts sully reputations
Of the pernicious
(And my condolences to your community and to all those so terribly hurt by the actions of one man.)
