Apart, of course, from those of you who now take this contest so seriously we&#39;re genuinely getting a little bit frightened.</strong></p>
<p>This week we&#39;re asking you to scribble out lyrical odes to smilin&#39; <strong>Thom Yorke</strong> and his pals in <strong>Radiohead.</strong> But &#8211; before we get onto that &#8211; let&#39;s take a look at last week&#39;s winner, shall we?</p>
<p><span id="more-11303"></span> Last time around, we asked you to write haikus on the following topical celebrity story: that neurotic film-maker <strong>Woody Allen </strong>had been arguing so much with Spanish locals that he quit shooting his latest movie there. The winner was someone called<strong> sparkymike</strong>, whose effort ran thus:</p>
<p><em><strong>Spain is reluctant<br /> To forward its tax money<br /> To wife adopters</strong></em></p>
<p>Well done, sir.</p>
<p>Hold on &#8211; where are <em>you</em> going? There&#39;s plenty more fun to be had. Just because Mike was crowned the victor of last week&#39;s tussle, that doesn&#39;t mean you can&#39;t strive to be a champion right here and now. All you&#39;ve got to do is come up with the best haiku on this tasty morsel:</p>
<p><strong>Following the huge success of their &#39;In Rainbows&#39; digital download, Radiohead are now closing the site in preparation for the CD/vinyl release.</strong></p>
<p>Just remember the golden rule of haiku: five syllables, seven syllables, five syllables. So an example &#8211; based on this week&#39;s story &#8211; would run like this:</p>
<p><em><strong>Thom and the band</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>decide to stop giving out</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong>music for &#39;nothing&#39;</strong></em></p>
<p>Think you can do better? We&#39;d be frankly astonished if you couldn&#39;t. Entries in the comments box below, please&#8230;&nbsp;</p>
