Celebrity Haiku
I think that for Haiku Friday we should have a theme-- celebrities. You don't have to use the theme, though, to be eligible for this week's fabulous prize, which is a framed copy of a photo showing Prof. Bates being arrested by a tiny U.N. peacekeeper.
My haiku is about a 1L celebrity whom I talked to yesterday. I really liked the guy, too-- I can see why he is a celebrity.
We met by the Bear
He asked about Detroit
His moustache-- it works.
Please place your own entries in the comments section below. As always, the recipe is 5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 syllables.

A Halloween Haiku from the Spanish Inquisition made up entirely of only three words!
Murciélago
Imprevisiblemente
Inaccesible.

Celebrity Haiku:
Anna Nicole Smith
Fried chicken in Mexia
That’s before TrimSpa
Regular Haiku:
Cold then Hot - what's up?
Would the weather pick a mood?
Bring on summertime

Misty--
That's perhaps the first use of "Trimspa" in American poetry, and I think it's perfect.
Inquisitionist--
I'm guessing that yours involves shrink wrap or something.
P.Rico--
I'm hoping that the "Draw and Quarter System" has a good chance of becoming a part of the vocabulary.

Amanda, neither of us had our contacts in, it doesn't count
Dear high school best friend,
You put in Zoolander. You!
The sex was your fault.
This was my first graduate haiku, posted originally on Swanburg's:
Like a Mexican variety show
Apartment above-
The train-whistle, tap dancing;
Your loud sex astounds.

I like what you've done
"The Draw And Quarter System"
Wish I thought of it.
Two Words for the medievalist:
An‧ti‧dis‧es‧tab‧
lish‧men‧tar‧i‧an‧ism;
victoriously.
Manchester:
Why watch the tv
When you can read all the blogs;
Perez, Pink, and more.
SwissGirl:
Adoption is cool
But why go to Africa?
I just don't get it.

The Inquisitionist strikes again:
Ontological
Epistemological
Uncertainty.
A three word Haiku for literary theorists.
By the way: Murciélago=bat
The rest of the poem is about shrink wrap. How did you know?

Thomas: I haiku
I don't know the why or how
It's kind of my thing.
Midievalist
You made a mistake
Uncertainty only 4
Un-Cer-tain-ta-ty?

Swanburg:
Counting can be hard
Please be gentle with our brains
Finals make them hurt
And as for R.G.
Go on and use your fingers
That is what I do

In honor of our PR exam tomorrow:
We'll never reach fame
just for following the rules
Do it anyway
For a more traditional celebrity-type:
J-Lo, Jessica
Just be pretty and no one
will care you can't sing

Climbs mountains now to get high

Don't say "Umm, I'm sorry, Huh?"
Legs help compensate

Sorry, but I already had a haiku planned out.
Welcome to Micah's Peaceful Haiku Hour.
Eighteen thousand watts
Are now passing through my spine
That hurt a whole lot!
I am currently
Having my head dunked in beans
That are 9 months old.
My hard drive looks angry
'cause I punched my computer
Don't kill me, eMac
Just like Jason Fox
Now my mom bought a MomVo
It has nine off buttons
This has been Peaceful Haiku Hour with Micah.
