Helvetica ... yeah like the font

There is this movie about the font Helvetica that debutted at the SXSW music festival this week. And there is a contest to win a movie poster. All you have to do is write a haiku about Helvetica. I put in three entries. Its funny, I’ve been obsessed with writing haiku’s and here is a haiku writing contest. Here are my entries.


Oh Helvetica!
You should have been a metal band
That would be Awesome

Oh Helvetica!
Your umlaut looks like a ring
Of precious diamonds

Oh Helvetica!
Bands wish to be named like you
They are lame, you rock!
