Contest Deadline, Baseball Haiku

Tomorrow is the deadline for submitting to the Basho Haiku Challenge, so hurry up and send in your haiku if you haven't already done so.

If you find yourself with a free minute and want to hear one of the haiku masters, go to FORA.tv and listen to Cor van den Heuvel discuss baseball haiku, and hear him read the very first American baseball haiku, written by Jack Kerouac.

While the Basho Haiku Challenge may close on 10/2, Boulevard opens for submissions that same day. The editors accept (they even say "encourage") simultaneous submissions, and they pay $25-300 for poems up to 200 lines.
