A Haiku is a Japanese lyric verse form having three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables, traditionally invoking an aspect of nature or the seasons.
Well, that said, heres the rules:
1) The Haiku must be original (no plagarizing)! 2) It must fit the weeks theme 3) It must be submitted before the deadline 4) It must be submitted for the contest (no using works previously written) 5) One Submission per user 6) The Same User cannot win twice in a row (but there welcome to submit!)
Hopefully oneday the winner could get a merit...
The Deadline will always be a Wednsday, so the deadline for the first theme will be Wednsday, September 2. The theme is The Pond
My mind is not well (5) un-bal-anc-ed and sick (6) in-sane with night-mares (5)
Your middle line doesn't have the required number of sylabuls. And I was generous, assuming that 'unbalanced' had 4 sylabuls, instead of 3, depending on pronounciation. SO, you need to fix that.
All the others I've seen look good. Keep it up guys!
And I've lost track of whoever is judging this now. It seems to be constantly chaning. So, to whoever is currently judging, and to those who have ever judged, thanks, and keep up the good work!
My mind is not well psychologically sick insane with nightmares
Much better. For future references though, I would capatalize the first letter of every line, and add some form of punctuation at the end of each. Like periods, commas, or (semi)colons. And as you get used to writing Haikus, you can start messing with enjabment and other devices.

FallenSky's been on a small vacation for a while, so for the last 3-4 contests, I've been judge. Thanks for the praise!
