Celebrity Haiku Competition: Gay Superman

Digg this!   

Gay Superman haikuNo-one entered the competition last week.

While this upset us greatly – we thought you were our friends - we've decided to carry on with Celebrity Haiku Competition. Besides… it's our website and we'll do what we want.

Of course, the fact that last week's booty remains unclaimed means that this week's installment is a Rollover Prize! That's right – we now have two whole tubes of delicious, non-brand-specific Fruit Pastilles to give away.

To be in with a chance of winning such sugary goodness, all you have to do is scribble out the winning haiku based around a particular celebrity story.

Last week's target was Paris Hilton… evidently an unpopular choice, what with no-one having anything funny to say about her or just too darn busy masturbating to her homemade porn video to take part.

This week, we're giving you a novel twist. Our celebrity isn't entirely real.

Get your poetry-glands in order, and see if you can write a Haiku about this:

Superman Returns director Bryan Singer is denying that his portrayal of the character makes the Man Of Steel out to be gay.

Superman? A friend of Dorothy? Surely not. The question is… can you capture that sentiment within a Haiku?

Just remember the golden Haiku rule… five syllables, seven syllables, five syllables. Hell – you know what? We're so bloody nice that we're going to give you an example:

The Man from Krypton

May Look Like A Chap-Chaser,

But, Oh No, He's Not

Okay, okay… that was rubbish. You can write a better gay-superman-themed Haiku than that. Prove yourself by placing it in the comment box below…
