"The events are such an excellent mix of performers, and having a music act as the backing/feature is a wonderful addition to the scene. The venue is very fun, and its excellent to have something so vibrant happening outside Glasgow and Edinburgh. The community that comes to support the night is excellent, both in terms of the civilians, but also the connection and networking of the poets."

A haiku is a poetic form that consists of 17 syllables in a strict 5-7-5 format (5 syllables in the first line, 7 in the second, and 5 in the third).
