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

It's the end, final
Sentimentalization
Hidden in old code.

Kind of clunky, but I wanted to keep the short-short-short-long-long-long-short-short-short thing going (notice the syllables per word).

Get the car; Man down!
She's a red-hot Diablo,
Give the kiss of life.

I blame ZZTop.

lost forever in the void
save them from their fate.

Am I all alone?
Heed my song of urgency
Ere I drift beyond.

A memo of stones.
Is it visible from space?
Or is this my doom?

The Island

Night falls quickly here.
I'm marooned on this island;
Alone with my fears.

The round is over? Bite me.
