Let's get this party started

Aaaahhhh!  Our first haiku.  Isn't it cute?  What's that? What are we going to name it?
Never mind that.  Spank that haiku on the ass, and send it out into that cold, cruel world.

Haiku #1:

What am I doing?
None of your fucking business
Alright....watching films

Would you look at that.  Just one day old, and he's already fending for himself.  A bit of a feisty bugger, too.

In the beginning...

Welcome to "I'm Too Sexy For Haiku". Our mission statement is simple. Film + Haiku. We love film. Action films, art films, documentary films, funny films, horror films, sci-fi films, good films, bad films. Any, and all, films are possible haiku fodder. We will usually be using the 5-7-5 haiku form.

*Warning*
You may or may not need an intermediate knowledge of film and film lore to be in on the Haiku.  If you haven't seen the movie, the Haiku may not make a whole lot of sense. Also, spoilers abound. After all this is Haiku. We've only got so many syllables to get the point across.

Enjoy!
