Today: Best Someone Haiku Ever?

In an effort to bolster the ever-assailed decorum of the Internet, Mollygood looks to poetry with Someone Haiku. Each day—using 17 syllables or less—you’re given the opportunity to wax poetic about some piece of flotsam or jetsam that’s washed up on the shores of Mollygood. Hopefully this Zen practice will not only bathe you in self-discovery, but also bring a touch of Eastern class to a global network of information that’s devolved into nothing more than tit websites and provocative MySpace pictures.

Today's Someone Haiku winner is Sugar Magnolia:

Another child star
graduates from cute to sad.
What would Wilson do?

Al Borland references would have been preferable, but name-checking Wilson is fine, too.

Fantastic new one after the jump.

Today, put 17 syllables of poetry to this already poetic photograph. The indecisiveness in that stare is so relatable and distinctly American, it's as if it was sketched by Rockwell. If your work is good enough, the coupling of the two might actually be too much to bear, just like a Value Meal at Taco Bell. This might very well be the best source material for haiku the gods of poetry have ever given us. Please, use it and use it well.
