This week’s challenge: Write up a bit of news in haiku and post it below in the comments section. Haiku generally has three lines, the first and third line having five syllables, the second line having seven. The only real rule is that it has to include a news link in it, to show its newsworthiness.
Here are some examples:
Alito: New Choice
Democrat Armageddon!
O sloppy seconds…
Madonna is back
Here is a secret for you:

Stolen photos of
Britney and Cletus offspring
Quick to whore their child
Submit your news haikus in the comments section below! And don’t be a weenie about the comments section - I don’t bite.
