The winner of The Blasted Tree's fifth flash haiku contest, held on social media earlier this week, is derek beaulieu! We've published the haiku into 2.5" x 2.5" mini-leaflets in a limited run of 60 copies. derek’s poem was selected for it’s unconventional approach to the form, electing to substitute syllables for Space Invaders descending in haiku formation. As always, selecting a winner was quite a challenge, and reading through the submissions really brightened our week, so thanks very much to everyone who participated in the contest! Copies of the haiku are available from The Blasted Tree Store on metallic grey paper.
