An Attempt At Haiku Poem by Lauren Michaels
An Attempt At Haiku
A dichotomy
My skin, pale like my mother
Flushed like My father.
Not an attempt.. it is an...is! Rename it Haiku.. You've done what you set out to and done it very well...precise...concise...and turning on a sixpence. Says all it has to say in the best possible way. Very well observed and very well executed. Lovel the use of the word dichotomy to cover the first five syllables...never thought I would see it used so well and so cleverly. More? Please! love Donall
well done, Lauren. an attempt? i say a nail. so much said here in 17 syllables.
