one deep breath haiku: container


sealed tupperware heart
holding in and holding out
admitting nothing






illustration is from the Smithsonian
with a little added heart from me

Roswila here. I tried posting using my sign in, but blogger would not take it. Second time this has happened to me today with blogger...

Anyway, I want to say how much I like your ku. Intriguing and all too true in some cases. :-)

This is really lovely. Bears a few rereadings without unfurling anything heavily.

That's a sad ku, yes there are people like that. I like the illustration, very clever...
