The Velvet Burn is a hybrid zine and battle ground. With the posted theme, readers are asked to submit a haiku (or Senryū or whatever you want to call it, as long as it's 5/7/5). The winner picks the next theme. Put your haiku in the comments and you may have the honor of winning the haiku wars.

The Velvet Burn began with a simple war, by no means the simplest, but a war none the less, and though there was a victor, the battles would not cease. This will remain as a testament.
