Following yesterday’s interview with “Inception” composer Hans Zimmer, I thought it would be fun to run a contest and give a few of these bad boys away. (Confession: Yes, I ended up with more than one.)
I figure we’ll go with an oldie but a goodie from Sasha Stone: A haiku contest!
Cut loose with your best “Inception”-related haiku and the two best entries win a copy of the soundtrack, courtesy of Warner Bros. and Reprise Records. Bonus considerations go to those who find a way to work thoughts or perspective on the score into their haiku. We’ll pick a winner in, oh, let’s say mid-week. Wednesday, depending on when things trail off here.
Have at it in the comments section below!

Dissonent Layers
Synth in a half know dreamscape
Bass is the totem
Salvation through death
Dream becomes reality
Is waking a dream?
Figures cascading
through states of (sub)-consciousness
and staffs of music
Ominous cellos
Rumble while buildings crumble.
Is life not a dream?
The foghorns woke me
Did I just win the soundtrack?
Or was it a dream?
A top spinning fast
Seems in control, but Cobb’s heart
Explodes with anguish
Laughed at the opera
Reprised in the end credits
No one else* stayed for!
*in a “true IMAX” theatre on opening day!
Gravity fight scene
And snow chase score extracted
Two Towers trailer :)
Loved crowd-spanning laugh
for “Worth a shot” and ending
Applause and cheering.
gah. i miscalculated my previous haikus. hahahaha.
My mouth fell agape
It stayed in that position
Til the dentist chair.
Correcting #44
That Leo DiCaprio
Seems to gravitate
To psycho housewives
Anti-gravity
Made me pee a little bit
Did I just type that?
Lost in wildest dream
An odyssey of the mind
Nolan meets Kubrick
dammit. I messed up on that haiku again. I keep forgetting it’s 5-7-5. oops. forgive me.
A strange tendency
Towards psychotic housewives
Oh, DiCaprio
Last one.
‘Juno’ and Levitt
Indie darlings; action flick
Hipsters feel betrayed
Thoughts and dreams collide
Kaleidoscope of ideas
Who is mastermind?
Mind twisting music
Playing with surrealism
Key to sacred dream
Did the top spin on?
Is this… another idea?
Home, the perfect dream.
No longer alone–
in our dreams. Now invaded
Nothing is sacred.
