Just use the last line of the previous poster's haiku as your first line.
Remember the form of haiku:
First five syllables
Second seven syllables
Third five syllables
If you want to, you can get into the formal niceties of traditional haiku by including a season, a theme, a reference to nature and a contrast in the last line but don't sweat it. You're already working under the constraint of whatever last line was left for you by the previous poet. You may of course change punctuation to fit your new poem.
I'll start with this:
A spiffing harvest:
Amid corn and pumpkins find
an Intelli-Guild!

For conservatives,

what they stand for sucks.

What they stand for sucks
money away from people,
into weaponry.
