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

In Japanese poetry and songwriting rhymes are totally avoided because they bring bad luck.


Huh. I guess they'd have to counter that with some red fonts. Learn something every day I suppose.

Oh and Orion... if you die... can I have your stuff?

Woah woah.. Being cocky?


No. I'm simply saying what would be the point. If I DID win. If I didn't, who cares? And I dont want it to be judged for said reason...

Yeah I know I didn't do a Hakiu for the last round but if you never judge how will you be able to judge two rounds?

Sorry about the delay.

I'm going to have to do it tomorrow. Promise. Unless I'm dead. In which case, no I will not judge. My date at the morgue would be a bit too important.

So yeah, tomorrow or never.


You and your delays.. it's ok though xD

No, I'm not dead. I'm not the kind of person who would just die and not tell you guys. I would surely tell you.

Don't Die Orion!


I won't. Lol.

Yes, yes there is. I can put it off for another month if I so feel like it. Except I will do it today. Within five minutes. Liek nao.

If you complete it in 5 minutes (and it well done) I will assume you actually started sooner :P
