13th Annual Golden Globes Haiku!

As you know you must stick to the format — and that is three lines, with 5, 7, 5 syllables in each respectively.  Five for the first line, seven for the second and then five again for the third.  We will select three winners.   I’ll start.

Who cares if you lose,
But winning is everything.
Still only a Globe.

Who needs dialogue
Love and a bit with a dog.
That’s what people want.

Organs of fire.
Currents through best actor race.
I’ll take cold showers.

Your turn!

  59. Daytime dreamers seek purpose
    in the notable
    movies with no extra parts

    I can’t help wanting
    Two to win in each one spot
    Drive to go farther

    I can’t abandon
    Finding Descendants well told,
    a family hold

    Though iconic sights
    Sway me to go with Hugo,
    a part of me now

    Things may quiver
    singed by awkward rhetoric
    some laughter and loss

    If the eve deflates,
    Recollections will abound:
    Adrift in Paris

    Michelle’s synthesis
    drowning in Fassbinder’s eyes
    Clooney on his path
