My sincere thanks to Michael H. Lester who makes his second appearance as a ‘guest Failed Editor’. Music is a passion of mine, and this issue makes a great read! Thanks to all who made this issue a ‘walk on the wild side‘!!!

Please check the SUBMISSION GUIDES BEFORE SUBMITTING TO THE NEXT ISSUE!

Also, the results of the Fourth Annual Jane Reichhold Memorial Haiga Contest are now available in this issue. My thanks to Ron C. Moss and Steve Hodge for judging this contest and providing selections that cover the gambit for senryu based haiga. Brent Goodman, Editor of Prune Juice Journal, and I are pleased to continue this tradition.

And now, without further ado, Issue 47 of Failed Haiku! Guy Fawkes would be proud!!!

Peace

Mike Rehling
