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:

Never saw the first.
Can someone please explain how
his back got broken?

To be perfectly honest, that haiku left a lot to be desired, but it was the best of the few that were not self-referential. Good effort, though.

New one after the jump.

Today, haiku Harry Potter author JK Rowling's stupidly controversial revelation that one of her most beloved characters, Dumbledore, is a gay man. One would expect that the warlock's fanciful gowns and silky hair would serve as indicators of his homosexuality, but many fans were shocked by the news and many bigots are outraged. But how unsurprising that adults who spend their time catching up with the trials of a boy wizard can be so irrational. Good luck.
