Please be patient. 



How to submit to MahMight:

Add: a 50 word statement about your haiku


THEN SUBMIT: 

one favorite published haiku (by another author) and why


INCLUDE TWO QUOTES: 

A favorite quote from both “Waiting for Godot” and one from “Withnail and I


If all that is achieved then MahMight knows you are deadly serious about submitting haiku.



What MahMight would like:


A considered and thoughtful decision on which one of your haiku to select for submission


A considered and thoughtful micro statement on the crafting you brought to your haiku


A considered and thoughtful decision to tell us about a haiku from someone else


The quotes really add to each submission! Try not to submit quotes already posted.



A very famous play by Samuel Beckett:


Waiting for Godot
