## What is Haiku Battle?

Haiku Battle is a daily creative competition built around the ancient art of haiku.
                                                                                                                        
  Every day a new prompt appears. You have until voting opens to write your three lines — 5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5   
  syllables. Then the community votes, the leaderboard reveals the winners, and the cycle begins again.                 
                                                                                                                        
  WRITE                                                     
  Craft a haiku from the daily prompt. The syllable counter keeps you honest. Submit before the window closes — or spend
   Ink to revise if inspiration strikes late.                                                                           
   
  VOTE
