Since IA suddenly decided to drop this, I'm restarting it on my own.
Rules and Entry Information
1.) Signups will be based on the order in which submissions are made, meaning that all entries are to be made upfront (either here or via PM to me). Only fifteen entries are allowed per round. Once an entry is submitted, it cannot be swapped out for something else or altered in any way.
2.) ONLY haikus will be accepted. Other short poems will no longer be allowed. If you cannot count off the alternating five-seven-five-syllable per line requirement, your entry will be disqualified and you won't be allowed to submit another poem for the duration of this round.
3.) Each poem for the contest must follow the selected theme for the competition. Due to artist’s having different interpretations of ideas, no haiku will be disqualified for writing about divergent topics so long as the theme is tied in somehow (if it isn’t, then you will be disqualified for the duration of this round); however, please note that poems posted with intent to troll or written up stupidly will be disqualified automatically. This contest’s theme is Rebellion.
4.) Votes will be tallied by the amount of likes an entry's post gets. No one is allowed to vote for more than three poems, and the votes of anyone who does will not be counted. Furthermore, ALL entrants are required to vote for at least one poem and are NOT allowed to vote for their own! If one does, that person will be disqualified. A second offense will result in blacklisting from the contest indefinitely.
Entry Deadline: Wednesday, May 1st, 2013

Entry List
1.) No child (By Teal)
Sleep at nine 'o clock?
Just two hours on my PC?
I'm already ten!
2.) The Disobeyer (By RaichuGirl)
Do as I say, teen!
You hear but do not obey,
Sneaking out again.
3.) Pre-Determined (By DNA)
Destiny is not
Something you can escape from;
Who cares what you think!?
4.) ( Give Up Man ) (By Grumpigfarmer)
Rebellious soul,
The same as losing control.
You'll never feel whole.
5.) Rapunzel (By Suitcune)
Why must I be locked,
Up in this column tower!
Could I use my hair...?
6.) Ragnarok (By Delta)
Betrayal is sweet.
Never show mercy for them.
For it is weakness.
7.) Liberty. (By Serperior)
Law binds me like chains.
But they rust away. Snap. Fall.
I think for myself.
8.) No Longer Shall They Dictate (By AoH)
Silence the voices
Break the sky you lay under
Extend your borders
9.)
