Hahaha:))) Planting one's secondary (conditioned) self in the flower box of life in the hope that it will grow up to be a flower. The butt of the flowers of our real self... (just a thought:))
Pamela: For the most part these haiku derive form things I see coming and going. The better ones are more like like them appearing to me. I will see something and suddenly realize, "Wow, that's a haiku". Of course, the work comes in crafting the experince into something aesthetic.
Since August I have been linking them as well. To do this effectively I have, at any given time, 10-20 haiku in a draft form. As a write them I look for natural links. Only occasionally do I resort to writing a haiku just so it fits in to a link in the chain.
Thank you for asking. :-)
Andrew: Thank you.
John: Thanks.
Borut: Interesting thought. Amazing what thoughts are inspired by a few poetic words. :-)
ha! how fiendishly clever ... and a not uncommon sight.
