PIMD Haiku Contest Hello, all! It's Hailey, and... My last contest thrived, so I'll give you a sequel! Below are details... As I said in my own little haiku, I previously held a drawing contest that I think went quite well! So for the unartistically inclined, I decided to hold another one. Requirements Create a PIMD-themed haiku! For those that do not know, a haiku is a type of poem that originates in Japan. The rules of a haiku are simple, but forming one can be very difficult. It does not require any rhyme scheme, but it must be 3 lines long and each line must have a certain amount of syllables. The first has 5 syllables, the second has 7, and the third one has 5 again. And, of course, I am requiring you to keep the poem PIMD-themed. Prizes There will be 3 winners, at different placements. The placements and prizes awarded are as follows: First Place • 1× Otaku Party Amp • 1× "Buns and Roses" Floor Plant • 1× Holo-Crystal Lamp • 1× 3mcs Lip Smacking Smoothie • 1× 500kcs Basketball Team Cookies • 1× 400kcs Flowering Paper • 1× 250kcs Easter Tulips • 53× Bolts (Non-Starter) • 25× Nuts (Non-Starter) • 198× Washers (Non-Starter) • 4× Countdown Boxes Second Place • 1× Bro Code Party Amp • 1× "Buns and Roses" Tea Tray • 1× "Buns and Roses" Wreath • 1× 1mcs Playerade • 1× 250kcs Fabric Lei • 1× 250kcs Popcorn Basket-Bag • 51× Bolts (Non-Starter) • 25× Nuts (Non-Starter) • 196× Washers (Non-Starter) • 3× Countdown Boxes Third Place • 1× "Buns and Roses" Wallpaper • 1× "Buns and Roses" Floor • 1× "Buns and Roses" Display Shelves • 1× 250kcs Referee Water Bottle • 1× 250kcs Shot Spinner • 1× 250kcs Sweet and Sour Sunglasses • 51× Bolts (Non-Starter) • 25× Nuts (Non-Starter) • 196× Washers (Non-Starter) • 1× Countdown Box Donations are welcome.

Oooh, I love writing essays. I'll write your essays for 1 bento per sentence ty. Real talk though hmu if you need someone to edit or read over any essays you got. Or writing in general (except for this contest). I love it cuz I'm a huge ass nerd.
Good question! One entry per person! (Don't try to use alts for multiple entries either cuz that's not nice.) The contest is a bit over week and a half long, so don't feel pressured to post an entry today. Make sure you're very pleased with your entry when you post it.
That's a reasonable price. It's a shake I don't have to write them anymore. But this is good advertising.
What are the rules to count poetic syllables in English?? Because in Spanish it's not the same grammatical syllables than poetical... I tried unsuccessfully to Google this, but I get translators of "metrics" or the word in different contexts.
You are very shy You should express yourself Heck! Don't be afraid! (Not an entry, not directly PIMD related, just practicing).
You might find this helpful! If not, let me know and I can try explaining it myself or finding other websites that might be helpful. I think this website helps explain it fairly well though. Simple & concise.
