For the first three themes, we have Fenton Grant, winner of the first haiku war, and his suggestions. These themes are loose, so give us your best haiku that somehow work in the following theme:
A Close Shave
Give us your haiku in the comment field, and in about two weeks time, we'll decide a winner and let you decide how to roll on. Gentlemen, fire when ready.

bring on the game then if you dare to battle me haiku to the death
This all 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.
The Velvet Burn is a hybrid zine and battle ground. With the posted theme, readers are asked to submit a haiku (or Senryƫ 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.
