Haiku Contest

A lot of people asked for a haiku contest.

I didn't want to suggest it, because, frankly, I'm a little tired of judging them. And yeah, I know that I still owe everyone the final American Haiku show... I'll get to it one day.

So, here's the deal. I'd love to host a Dan Rather/Bill Burkett/John Thurston Kerry haiku contest. But I don't want to judge.

Fortunately, MeTooThen has just graciously volunteered to judge the contest, and I accepted, because he satisified my three key criteria for judging:

1) I know who he is.

2) He is an "unimpeachable source" for judging haiku quality.

3) He does not appear to be a diagnosable maniac.

So, just post your haikus here! At some point, maybe by the end of the week, I'll close the entries and then MeTooThen will make his Solomnic judgement.

I'll be posting haikus too, but, as always, corporate officers of Ace of Spades HQ and their families are barred from actually entering the contest.
