Brad Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Time for the first contest of the year and it's one of the classics!To be entered, reply to this thread with a Black Friday themed haiku. For those unfamiliar, a haiku is a 3-line poem with the first, second and third lines having 5, 7 and 5 syllables respectively. It does not have to rhyme, but should create some kind of imagery in the reader's head, so be creative!An example Black Friday haiku would be:people skipping lines (5 syllables)crashing carts into others (7 syllables)glad i stay at home (5 syllables) You can include more than one haiku in your post but it will not increase your odds. Also please do not post multiple times in the thread - keep all your haikus in one post. Also don't just re-use your (or someone else's) haiku from past years - come up with new ones! Contest will be open until 11pm ET on Sunday, October 3rd. I will then randomly choose 15 members who entered and you'll win a brand new 2021 Black Friday t-shirt!Limit of one t-shirt prize per member but if you win you are still welcome to enter future contests for fun.For more info on this year's shirts and to order them if you wish, see this thread.Good luck to everyone! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
