Reissue Haiku (bear with me on this one...)
Permalink  
 


So this is the story:


the music editor of my uni magazine decides to do the latest news in haiku form, and comes up with this one...


pulp gets reissued


jarvis is a sexy man


remove those glasses


... i was a bit upset by the glasses comment and am now trying to find a far far superior alternative (yeah i'm also trying to avoid studying for exams...). i cannot get past shove it in sideways as my favourite.


so! the challenge is to replace the offending line (or the whole thing...), 5 syllables, something awesome. any help would be greatly appreciated! and i thought it could be a bit of fun. good luck!

Tamzen, this is my favorite post ever. I'm sorry I'm not much help though. I'm not being very creative at the moment, all I can come up with is:


"Do You Remember"


or


"We Love Life was Shite"


Your suggestion is way better though. And the "glasses" line ain't so bad really. It's ambiguous. You can read it as "those glasses make you look less sexy" or "take off the glasses and come to bed".
