    A breath of fresh air during the June contest. Although it is risky to submit such a short-form poem to the contest, I think this was worth the gamble because the poet clearly understands that a Haiku isn't just about trying to make a poem with a form that limits syllable count. A humble, yet very fun entry.

    In a sea of edge and theatricality, this is lovely.
