"Charlie Don't Serf!"

A 1960's credo ("Don't Trust Anyone Over 30") meets 1970's Sci-Fi.

We are pleased to bring you


MHC #145: LOGAN'S RUN





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

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

When the voting deadline ends (9pm Wednesday 18MAR FWFR time), the votes are tallied and the top three places are announced. If we collectively decide to put this off another day or so due to Sludge's laziness in getting this one going, that works too.

Sludge
Free love and loose cloth
and my then-eight-year-old mind
was in Agutter

Monty
At 67,
if York ran today. Wouldn't
be much of a race.

Whipper
Mike and Jenny know
Their fate is in their own hands
(and starting to flash).

Bafta
Sandmen chase runners.
Trust no one over thirty.
Like the cast and crew?

Bife
Facing middle-age
fifteen is the new forty.
How life flashes by!

Beanmimo
Surviving past the
Age of thirty, you lose your
Ustinov to live.

MguyX
Runner and sandman,
Logan seeks sanctuary;
blink, and he might die.

calmer
Logan's leotards
Are nearly as restrictive
As society.

rockfsh
Logan's a sandman
but not the kind who brings dreams
dreams are for runners
