Is "She" allowed in a haiku?

Disturbing scream is
Rippling through everyone here
Turns out she just tripped

A scream
Has the longest arm
It comes for you
At a hundred miles an hour
Finds you thirty years ago
Or five
Or yesterday
And punches you in the gut

Irresponsible screaming
Bag full of drugs
And needles
Sprite full of wine
Children waiting
For their visit
It is human hell
Frightening decisions
Hiding there
And a panic

can she do it?
can she do it?
can she do it
