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

I just dont like it. But I gave it a shott


The funniest thing is, even when all your words were "Blah", you still failed to keep the first line five syllables long (:P). Your haiku was funny, but I'm laughing at you, not with you. No offense.

I just wanted to say that, but I made a haiku too so I wont look like a spammer.

The clock is ticking.
Many lives are in my hands,
The blue wire's cut.

That defeats the fun of trying to interpret a haiku.

..oh. Right. Agreed..
But it prevents shallow or mis- interpretation.

Haiku's aren't really my field, then again nothing creative is either.

I'll post something before the theme ends.

Fatal Error hmmmmm...

Blasting to the stars
seventy three seconds in.
Flames, debris, lives lost.

A sad day in American history :\\

Snapped the blue wire
Explosions killing many
Cremated by bombs.

The census runs deep;
Blood sown for the fallow fields.
Life Earth can't support.

Agriculturists need food to support a larger population > larger food supply = population growth > need more food to support a larger population > larger food supply = population growth. . . .

The wrong button, cold,
warmed with the press of a hand
many funerals.

Watching your last breath
Really should've done something
So, you'd breathe again.
