The Kukai - a haiku contest, where each person submits a haiku, and then, becomes a judge. When all the poems are compiled in a list, the contestants comment, vote, and give scores to poems of their choice. One cannot comment on, nor vote for one’s own poem. At the end of the voting process winners emerge, the selection based on votes by the kukai’s contestants.

Excellent winning haiku, and some other good ones too.
ReplyDeleteI see that one of the best haiku there didn't receive any points, which is a shame:
shrouded gurney...
seeing only the blood
on the street
--Diane Mayr
I really liked this, but it only received one vote:
in his shroud
a breast pocket
her ring inside
--Ralf Bröker
