New Contest! The Breakfast Haiku Bonanza!
« on: June 03, 2006, 05:26:49 pm »
On the heels of the wildly successful Logo-Parody Bonanza, we bring you another delicious creativity contest.  Ladies, gentlemen, and Blubladanians, introducing...

THE BREAKFAST HAIKU BONANZA!
[/COLOR]

That\'s right, time to release your inner poet and get those Breakfast Haikus going!  It\'s cool because anyone can do this, you don\'t need a fancy graphics program this time!  Let\'s run this for two weeks, through 6/17/06.    

The prize for this contest is a ticket to the Breakfast show of your choice anytime in 2006![/COLOR](No festies.)

A Haiku is a 3-line poem.  The first and third line must have 5 syllables and the second line has 7 syllables.  That\'s it.  Nice and simple!

Here\'s three to get us started:

Fingers flying fast
Fretboard doesn\'t have a chance
Timmy Tour Fo Life!

*  *
I like to eat Za
It sounds as good as it tastes
Take it off the shelf

*  *
Rufus breaks my balls
But not like Staven Guineas
Those guys are brutal

*  *
OK, your turn!  Ready, set, HAIKU!

Yay!  This sounds like fun.  I\'ll have to think about it for awhile, and it will give me something to do at work when I am bored :spin:

experienced the loss and pain I have experienced,
I transcend race, hombre.

syllables, not words.
Light travels faster than sound. That is why some people appear bright...until you hear them speak.

Wow, yeah, didn\'t even do a word count on those. Good observation Todd.
Shame on me for not looking back in the thread.
I was correct though.

Love Lake was better
Without cliché blues ending
Bring back "not a dream"
Go see your Breakfast, there are starving Leiths in California
