    You've got to be kidding right? umm there are several poets on this site who give excellent classes on Haiku if anything at all...it will give you insight on what is haiku and what is not...and shame on you for commenting on only some and not all the entries...

    • shame on me? well first of all its my contest and I don't have to comment if I don't want to. that attitude is probably why you didn't win.

        I repeat... Shame on you! but thanks for hosting

        • ur kind of rude. but ok. and also i noticed that you were insulting my judging. you really have no right to do that! i know exactly what a haiku is and i know what i like! haven't you ever heard of differing opinions. if you want your haiku teacher friends to win a contest then why don't you host one instead of badgering me about how i judge. i don't judge subjectively the way you are suggesting.
