I don't know what it is about this one that I fond so interesting, but there was something there at the back of my mind as soon as I read the words. What is this? Perhaps a longer poem expanding on these words which inspired it? I'm not usually a big fan of haikus; I prefer rhyming poems, but this one, for one reason or another, I like alot.
