Worst Haiku Ever Contest Results!

*LilithLairPoetry:iconLilithLairPoetry: reports, September 3, 2007
Wow, tons of 'bad' entries, some were just random and really bad, but some stood out and really exemplifies the worst haiku without being repetitive. I had fun judging, and everyone that submitted is a winner. For those that didn't get the top 3 or Honorable Mentions, you all had nice little nifty smart-ass rewards on what I interpreted from your pieces. *drum roll*

Top 3 Finishers!!
=============================================

~goottihippi

I taught U luvd me
Now I am sad AND bleeding
Sakura blossom


1st Place!!

What can I say, ~goottihippi writes the most horribly cliched haiku, mixing a combination of stereotypes that makes most Editors cringe if they see them. You got corny romance, an EMO line, and then throw in some overused traditional Haiku to make it nature-based out of nowhere, but it all makes some sense, and therefore gets #1 spot!



`GeneratingHype

a springtime ribbit
awash in dump truck headlights--
green gravel pancakes


2nd Place

Imagination has no boundaries, no matter how depraved or sickening this haiku is by `GeneratingHype. This poem took me back to my days of playing Frogger and feeling so demented when I kept on getting it run over by traffic. I love how he keeps the traditional nature of haiku and adds a bit of contemporary modern-esque touch to it.



*MaskedVengeance

I cry into wool,
Crimson stains remain, alone,
Like shit on the moon.


3rd Place

Another eccentric EMO haiku with some interesting random elements thrown in. *MaskedVengeance intelligently places some forethought prolly after drinking massive amounts of alcohol before conjuring this cubic zirconium in the trash heap piece.


Honorable Mentions
=============================================

*Beccalicious

There once was a man
called Bob, who... oh shit, that's wrong
--that's a limerick!


Honorable Mention


~thenakedlunch

oh yellow flower!
how you make my allergies
bloom like spring morning.


Honorable Mention


~damnedlostsoul

Play with me, baby.
Let us spend this night moaning
in your husband's bed.


Honorable Mention


~niedec

Burning pink suns
glisten in the noonday heat-
grandmother's nipples.


Honorable Mention


~time-warrior

blood-sucking insects
fields on fire and chicken litter
I morn for Winter


Honorable Mention

Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over--
like a syrupy sweet?

Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.

Or does it explode?"
