TR Contest: Star Wars Haiku

?What? It’s a three-day holiday weekend? Have comments seemed to be a little light in the britches recently? Do I hate myself and am looking for a way to ruin at least a full day of my life?

The answer to all these questions is yes, and that means it’s time for another Topless Robot haiku contest. Having done both robots and zombies, I figured about the only subject that could possibly generate more comments would be Star Wars. Love it, hate it, prequels, original trilogy, specific characters, fandom, whatever. Lay it on me. Here’s mine to start you off:

After I noticed
Bib Fortuna ‘s neck udder
I can’t unsee it

As with all these haiku contest, enter as many times as you want. I don’t give a shit. I would prefer you try for the standard 5-7-5 syllable form, but I’ll allow a little flexibility if it’s devastatingly brilliant or funny. Oh, you’d best make sure to include your real email address on the comment line, or I can’t award you the shirt — EH, LAST WEEK’S WINNER POOPSHAFT?

Now remember, I’m off Monday for Labor Day, so I’ll see you cats on Tuesday morning. Make me proud. By which I mean write a lot of haikus. And avoid fucking any trees if you can.
