The exercise:

Write two haiku about: temerity.

I don't know, the word just popped into my head this evening and I decided to run with it.

If a word just pops into your head like that I think you ought to write to the prompt as well :) I'm sure I ought to be making some other comment about you having the temerity to make that a haiku prompt, but I better get to angsting over my syllables :-/

Temerity
She likes cool, bad boys
Reckless, rash, confident and
Likely to die soon.

He rashly told her
She looked just like her mother,
And now he's single.

Greg - yeah, well, consider yourself lucky that I'm even replying to comments on these sorts of prompts :P

Also: hah. I can't help but smile at the thought of you angsting over your syllables.

Really like your first. Also enjoyed your second, but your first tells quite the tale and I'm tempted to know more.
