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

Look at my rant on the last page. Then you'll see.


Oh. Well, I was just wondering. It wasn't an overreaction, unlike the people you were mentioning.

I'm not being lazy this time, I'm just going to wait until after the poetry contest is judged (which is an excuse for me to be lazy). Their deadline is one day before ours, so I don't feel right judging this one before that one is judged.

It's all good, I think most of us have come to accept the fact that the results of the haiku contest are never immediate and are patient to this fact. Now as long as you don't wait like a month to judge then I think everyone should have patience!

I find it very funny how half the comments are complaining about the judging

Besides the fact that it does not fit the theme...and it being very late to be submitted...
Stop rhymes with stop, also try not to be repetitive...good luck next round.

This may be obvious, but you're joking right? I just have to be sure...

Jack I'm curious about your haiku, how do the first and last line relate?

Seemed sarcastic enough to me.
Don't really know, though.

That made me lol a bit. I really do hope he did it to be funny and his mind isn't completely focused on double meanings for drugs.
