You manage the Monday Poetry Train, right? I've got another post for today, not a poem. There is an informal contest on another site and I've posted info about it.

If you think it's appropriate, would you consider posting it i the comments on Monday's Train? If not, don't worry about it. Hope you'll consider writing for it.

Like what you see in the water!

Lovely haiku, Guatami. It's title twists it to another place.

Gemma Wiseman said...

Love how the title gives a certain ironic twist to see that persona as an illusion of sorts! Lovely haiku!

Those who bombard our thoughts also take form in our water swirls. I know some people like that who live in my coffee cup.

Fun writing, my friend.

I like the immediacy of this haiku.
