" These ain't no pork chops! These are U.S. PRIME!" Coke, tabs, Hopper, choppers, Mardi Gras, Fonda, Nicholson. Turn on, tune in, drop a haiku about this 1960s classic Easy Rider.




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 9 July, FWFR time), the votes are tallied and the top three places are announced.

Well, yeahv - that's what I said:
"I thought we'd get a few more entries for this class race, but hey ... but we did get one onlooker placing bets."

Poor Whipper, like he's never ever won a haiku contest

Whip at least you know that everyone voted for you!!




No they didnt!

3/4 other people voted for me - there must have been a lurker around too. I scored 2,1,1.

Anyhow, Rocky's haiku was a worthy winner.

When there are only four entrants there's a school of thought which says that its best not to mention who comes third in order to spare the feelings of whoever it was who came fourth.





Not that I'm bothered, of course.





Oh no, not me.





Not in the least.





Water off a duck's back.

All the Easy Riders have crossed the finish line. I thought we'd get a few more entries for this class race, but hey ... but we did get one onlooker placing bets.












So















In Third Place, with 6 points [1,3,1,1] is











me




Pulling out ahead with 9 fab points [3,2,2,2] is












Beanmimo











But













Way out in front

















speeding over the finish line with a whopping 11 points [2, 3, 3, 3] is









the one










the only














rockfsh. YAY!










Make your way to the winner's circle, rocky, and do your thing!

We only need Beanie's vote to crash the bike.

I'm hoping for a top four finish in this competition.

Voted.
