Getting your player ready...
We have feelings about barbecue. Deep, fragrant, smoky feelings. We have them in Spanglish. We have them about Jamaica. But the one that really made us smile among all the entries in The Denver Post’s $25 Haiku contest came from Carl Bellante, Denver:
Bereft of belief
Boyish burnt-out businessmen
Quietly burn beef
You can read the rest of the sizzling entries at. And if they make you feel like you’ve got something to say in 5-7-5 poetry form, enter a one-stanza haiku at
lifestyle@denverpost.com or file it at. Our favorite wins a gift certificate to the Tattered Cover Book Store.
This week’s topic:
Baseball.
The deadline is midnight Thursday. Good luck, and start writing.
