A Haiku Death Match? / Dr. Helbert Will Explain/ (Oh, and It's Tonight!)

Thanks to Dr. Daniel Helbert for stopping by High Plains Morning today to explains the particulars of tonight's Haiku Death Match

From 7 to 9pm on Friday, November 2nd (TONIGHT!), meet a motley crew of Panhandle poets at the Evocation Coffee Roastery (2300 SW 7th Ave., Amarillo) for a serious slam of 5-7-5'ers. That's right: you'll go head to head with other haikus, so bring your best and get ready to throw down.

Everyone's invited, and it's free and open ot the public. Bring at least 10 haikus with you depending on how long you remain the "winner"--each round requires a new haiku which could be composed on the spot if you are quick enough. Light food and drinks will be provided. 

For more info, email Dr. Helbert here. See you there!
