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

Many different fish swim


Even if it was remotely connected to "Uprising", that line has 4 syllables.

Sorry for DP.

Either it's me or my lack of sleep because of the horrors of school.

Actually it does have 7. I had to look up the number of syllables in "different" to confirm that! =P

Well it certainly isn't 4. Either way, I won't count it unless he gives a reason why it fits the theme.

Lol... all your post said was that you didn't get enough sleep, but you didn't really specify why it was relevant.

Just so people don't complain tomorrow, "Why isn't this judged yet?", I'll reannounce my earlier statement: Due to the recent glitches locking this, I'm extending the due date to Oct 27th.

Face a sickly green,
The tide rose, puddle of filth,
Massive hangover.


Some drunk puked. Yeah. Vomit, rising in him.
