Is it possible that we haven't written haikus for Psycho yet? I looked through the list fairly carefully and didn't see it there.

NOTE: I'm talking the Hitchcock/Anthony Perkins movie.

Whip, have you seen this one? Don't want to ruin the ending for you.

Alert readers, please let me know if we have already written haikus for this flick and I'll choose another.

----
Abbreviated rules borrowed from here to encourage some new entrants ....

The Rules

The first line of a haiku poem has five syllables.
The second line has seven syllables.
The third, and final, line has five syllables.

The Movie Haiku Contest (MHC) is open to every member of the FWFR site.

To enter, all you have to do is think of a Haiku for the current movie, then post into the current thread. Simple as that. Also, haikus may be risque, but nothing explicit please.

Only one entry per person as per The Blevins Rule. However, you are allowed to edit your existing entry until 9pm Tuesday FWFR time. *


Voting.

If you have entered the MHC, then you have to vote. If you do not vote, you'll lose 3 points from your total, even if you are Sludge and its your birthday. This could mean the difference between the adoration and envy of your fellow Fwiffers or being the feckless butt of our jokes!

You do not have to enter an MHC to vote. Vote away. It'll be like a lurker vote!

---------------------------------

For each round, you get to vote for your three favourite haikus. The voting is as follows:

3 pts fwfr a
2 pts fwfr b
1 pt fwfr c
--------------------------------

You may vote only once
You cannot vote for yourself.
You can vote for the previous winner (AND THAT IS ENCOURAGED! )

You vote by sending me your votes in a PM (Private Message) to me.

When the voting deadline ends (9pm Wednesday 28 May FWFR time), the votes are tallied and the top three places are announced. Or whichever ones I liked best and want to award the prizes to.
'Cause, you know, how would you guys know?


Bribery is advised. As is copying off your opponent's haiku paper.

Okay -- let's off to a quaint little motel just off the main freeway.

EM :)
