Celebrity Haiku Competition: ‘Crackhead’ Keane

Monday is here again.

You know what that means? Well, apart from sitting there weeping at your desk as you realise that your future lies in mid-level accountancy (and not professional flamenco dancing)? Monday means that its time for hecklerspray's Celebrity Haiku Competition. And, that, friends - if nothing else - is surely reason enough for living.

Surely. 

This week we're looking at that moon-faced chap from dullrock non-band Keane, who got called a crackhead live on stage the other day. But first let's take a look at last week's winner.

Seven days ago, we set you the challenge of writing the best haiku about the fact that sports star OJ Simpson was all due to receive $3.5 million for writing a book about - if he had done it - how he would have killed his missus.

The winner was a bloke called Evianhat, whose sterling effort ran thus:

three point five million?!?
damn, if i had me a wife
i’d kill the bitch too

Well done, sir. You win our tip-top weekly prize. That's right: send us your address and you could be snacking down on a whole multipack of Chewits.

'But wait!' hecklerspray hears you scream. "I want some Chewits of my very own too!" To which we respond: silence, child. Your time is at hand. All you have to do to be in with a chance of winning is scribble out the best haiku about this weeks topical celebrity story:

Keane frontman Tom Chaplin was rather embarrassingly heckled with the insult 'crackhead' during a gig this week.

Just remember the golden rule of haiku: five syllables, seven syllables, five syllables. Eh? What's that, sonny? You want some sort of 'example'? Oh, alrighty then:

The bloke from Keane is

upset about being told

he is a junkie

Yeah, yeah… we know. That was rubbish. And you can do, like, a million billion times better and stuff. So why not prove it? Simply leave your entries in the comments box below…
