My sincere apologies for putting up a poll before Derek posted his haiku. Once he posts his haiku I'll put the poll back up.

Breathe the Air, Fear the

There is a tie between Daidoji Derek and Daidoji Dodaiji. The poll will be reset with just those two names. All other competitors advance to the next round.

Please vote for either Daidoji Derek or Daidoji Dodaiji to advance to the next round. Polls will be open for 1 hour.

Water in, Flame out
Air in before melding Earth
The monk is the Void

Water soothes the earth.
Air lovingly feeds the fire --
Void's intangible.

Earth yearns for sky, As
lightning strikes, chaos is beauty

Steel ore, cool water
White hot air forges a blade
The spark of heroism

Earthly aromas
carried on the wind, flames cease
by water voids all.




Note to competitors from Kakita Kae: My apologies for the delay. This weekend I was at an intense weekend long national collegiate 9-ball tournament where I competed with 20 other women for the chance at winning scholarship money so I did not have time to post due to day long tournament play and much needed sleep.
