Hay(na)ku contest
"We're so pleased to post the results of our recent Hay(na)ku contest. 'Twas judged by Mark Young, co-editor (with Jean Vengua) of THE FIRST HAY(NA)KU ANTHOLOGY. The results are posted below. First, a prefatory comment by Mark -- and thank you all who participated by sending in your hay(na)ku poems!
"The Holiday Hay(na)ku competition attracted a good number of entries, & once again demonstrated the geographical dissemenation of the form -- there were submissions from Mexico, Spain, Finland, The Netherlands, New Zealand as well as many places within the U.S. -- the seemingly endless number of ways of approaching / augmenting the form -- amongst the winners are seriously kinetic hay(na)ku, abcderian hay(na)ku, sequences & the original stepped tercet -- and that it is a form that continues to attract new practitioners -- remember that one of the conditions of entry into this competition was that you weren't included in The First Hay(na)ku Anthology.
"The ten winners are, in alphabetical order: Lorna Dee Cervantes, Ray Craig, William Friend, Iris Lee, Rebeka Lembo, Rochita Loenen-Ruiz, Neon, Marko Niemi, Jordan Stempleman & Michael P. Steven. Follow this link to the winning entries.""
