I cannot believe
This is a weekly feature
I’m blaming Tierney

I am haiku champion!

Insta-contest!: Write your best Philly.com haiku feature haiku and win something from my desk. I’ll even give you a choice: A Frank TV clock, a Semi-Pro “We’re #4″ foam hand, a copy of the book Destiny at Your Fingertips: Discover the Inner Purpose of Your Life and What It Takes to Live It or a gallon paint can from Phillies Paint the Town Red Week in 2006. Winner will be chosen by me later today if I remember.

Live Haiku Challenge [Philly.com]
Thanks, Jon P.

    what happened my man?
    the forgotten contest?
    drunk already?

    or

    That article blew
    way better leads to cover
    budget cuts maybe?

    Inky may be lame,
    But Dan, why can’t your readers
    Count their syllables?

    While the Inqy burns,
    Tierny fiddles, wishing he
    Bought the Northeast Times

  9. david Says: Nov 27 3:38 AM

    H, you have to learn
    Haikus have five syllables
    Then seven, then five.
