HEY did you mean 500 for 2nd place?? Noticed that and didn't want you to accidentally promise five times the top prize to second place, haha

(Also, it should be 1st, 2nd, and 3rd)

This looks great @ChrisDixon! I'm definitely going to give it a try!


I do have a question about this rule though -> "There are no amount of syllable decided for you. You are free to decide, but you must write how many syllable eachstanza contains."

normally a haiku does have a set number of syllables (5 / 7 / 5 ) that's actually what makes it a haiku. Did you mean to put this rule in?

there is no season as achingly temporary as now

Here's my haiku entry -

it is about friendship and animals as the challenge stated! :) It's about how my cat Esther doesn't consider me a friend, because I'm not the one that gets her food in the morning and how that rejection has effected our friendship. Enjoy!

my cat's not my friend
I'm not the one to bring food,
rejected I guess?
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

Just saw this. This one's not about animals and is kind of depressing.

best friends forever,
you promised in past summers,
but winters broke them.
