Announcing summer morn(ing) June 2008 Kukai
For the June
2008 Kukai submit one to three HAIKU using the kigo
summer morn(ing). The exact word(s) must be used in the haiku.
No more than a total of three haiku may be submitted.
Haiku submitted to the kukai should not be workshopped,
appear on-line in forums, or in print.
summer
morning—
a spider weaves her web
of entrapment
John
Daleiden
To:
kukaieditor@poetrywriting.org
Subject:June08 summer morn(ing) Kukai
Submissions: Sunday,
June 01, 2008 – Friday, June 20, 2008 Midnight.
Voting:
Saturday 21, 2008 – Friday, June 27, 2008,
Midnight.
The results will
be published in the Monday, June 30, 2008
Sketchbook
Recent letters to the
Sketchbook editors and discussions on
various forums indicate that some assumptions about a
kukai must be spelled out. From now on (April 1, 2008),
Haiku entered in the Sketchbook
kukai must be previously unpublished; they must
not be workshopped; they must not appear on any list,
forum, group, blog, or in print. In short, if the haiku
has appeared on the internet or in print we consider it
to have been published. The voting in a kukai is
anonymous and publication anywhere voids anonyminity.
Any haiku found to be previously published will be
disqualified.
