Our latest contest reaffirmed that Georgetown has its fair share of wordsmiths. Okay, maybe not—but they can sure count syllables really well! We’ve included some of our favorites below.

“Chad Kroeger” delivered the funny, but we doubt he can trek down from the Great White North to pick up his ticket:

Sing: Someday, Somehow
Going to make it all right.
Hope it’s this season.

“Bailey Heaps” wrote a great poem, which is now unintentionally hilarious:

Deliver us please
Bring us to the promised land
You sir are Moses

And much love towards “Not #swagman” for some magnificent ceasura:

The guards will protect
What the past big men have built
The WAG slogans suck.

To be honest, the West End Cinema gave us a ton of tickets to Enter the Void. So, every commenter wins!

Thanks for playing, everybody.

To celebrate the impending start to Georgetown basketball, we’re throwing another haiku contest!

You know the drill: Submit your best Georgetown basketball-related haiku in the comments, then we’ll pick two favorites on Friday before the men’s team tips off against Old Dominion. (Don’t forget to include your email address in the comment.)

The winners will get pairs of tickets to see Enter the Void, courtesy of West End Cinema. Enter the Void is a “psychedelic melodrama,” which probably means the film will have a whole bunch of drugs, bright colors, and dream sequences.

Get started writing those syllabic-specific poems, gang.

Prepare yourselves, indie film geeks. The West End Cinema, a once-vacant theater located at 2301 M Street NW, will open on October 29.

The theater’s website, which launched this week, promises “art house, off-the-beaten-path kinds of films.”

During it’s opening weekend, the theater will screen Howl, an Allen Ginsberg biography starring James Franco; Budrus, the story of a Palestinian community that unites to save its village; and Gerrymandering, a documentary about the political and electoral outcomes of census taking. On Halloween weekend, the theater will host a midnight screening of Let Me In, the American adaptation of the Let the Right One In.

During the theater’s opening weekend, the directors of Budrus and Gerrymandering will also join audiences for question and answer sessions.

West End Cinema will offer discounts to seniors ($9), students ($9), military ($8), and children ($8). General admission tickets will cost $11, while matinee tickets will cost $8.
