Aaaahahaha! Love it! I paraphrased prodigy once, to similar effect -

You're no good for me
I don't need anybody

Windows NT crashed
I am the blue screen of death
no one hears your screams

Yesterday it worked
Today it no longer does
windows is like that

A crash reduces
your expensive computer
to a mere book end

I remember those ones. My favourite was:

wind catches lily
scatt'ring petals to the wind:
segmentation fault

that is one form.
there are other schools of thought that claim there is no format.
the general consensus is though that the last sentence should be detached from the first
two but still make some sort of sense.

Today my fuckwit co-worker would not shut up about his computer fan making too much noise. He kept banging on the desk to try and make it stop. I told him to shut the fuck up and accept it, and then I wrote a haiku to help him be more zen about it.

A divine wind blows;
It is the entelechy
Of all fans to hum.
