    May the true winner
    Deserve to be champion
    of this tournament

    To win or to lose
    Let us all ask ourselves
    That is the question

    Creativity
    Breeding such thoughtful haikus
    What really talks back?

    Taking time to find
    Essence in this life of awe
    Is priceless to all

    Three thousand credits
    Does not affect my life much
    But would be nice too

    five haikus for this contest. may the best man win

      None of those was a true haiku. Simply taking a 17 syllable sentence and jamming linebreaks into it does not a haiku make.

      And besides, the greatest haiku in the world has already been written:

      Hippopotamus
      Anti-Hippopotamus
      Annihilation

          I've posted most of my favorite stuff that I'm willing to share in these forums already:

          "A Dedication" - poem, free verse, slam style

          "Father's Violin" - poem, free verse, exploring use of imagery

          "The Treachery of Exploration" - poem, couplets, i'd suggest reading the posts in the thread after this one too because i explain some of the harder to understand aspects like the sin of the onion.

          "Lament" - poem, quatrains


          This one isn't poetry. It's actually a tl;dr research paper on the economic/psychological motivation behind procrastination that I wrote at Northwestern. I don't know, if you're into not understanding what you're reading and falling asleep occasionally, this will undoubtedly win.

                  I'm not the greatest person in the world and I can admit it
                  I'm psychologically disturbed so don't cross me, cause I won't permit it
                  I'm bound for hell and I like torture so I might commit it
                  My voice will give you chills every time I transmit it
                  So reminisce about what I say and then omit it
                  Cause I was charged with kidnapping, rape, and murder and I just got acquitted...

                            Sences



                            the scent of her hair,
                            the touch of her skin,
                            with all of the sences,
                            buried within.

                            the sound of her voice,
                            the taste of her kiss,
                            with all of the senes,
                            is really true bliss.

                            the sight of her beauty,
                            with each passing day,
                            with all of the sences,
                            makes the pain go away.

                              You spelled senses two different ways and neither were correct.
