Cinquain you're winning
help
Anyone fancy a Cinquain? For the uninitiated, an American form of poem based on Haiku with a definite format:

The first line is one word giving the title. It has 2 syllables. The second line has 4 syllables (normally 2 words) that describe the title. The third line has 6 syllables that express an action, usually 3 words. The fourth line has 8 syllables that express a feeling (4 words). The fifth line is 1 word. It has 2 or 3 syllables. The number of words can be discretionary.

Confused? Well here's an example:

Station
Oxford Circus
Enter carefully please
Why's it always so busy here?
Tourists

But I'm sure you can do much better.... Winning move is Crescent.

They put it in your ears
And some on ladies' private parts
Combustible.
Coffee
Drinkable beans
Smell better than taste
Can be used as fashion statement (Softers) Only 5 syllables - you need a cup of coffee. :-)
Javascript.
Bluetits
In cold weather
They freeze altogether
Making it hard to wear your bra (Rosie) in my world, tas-te has 2 sylables
Unladylike. (Softers) There's no polite answer to that. :-)
Dandruff
On your shoulders
Hastily remove it
Damn this black sweatshirt I'm wearing
Sorry to interrupt, but I've suddenly started reading these to the tune of Aphex Twin's "Beetles." This way madness lies.
