I had to slow down and absorb those words to fully SEE that insanely beautiful juxtaposition. Once I got it, I stopped breathing for a second, like my chest was in shock. GOod stuff
Thanks Bjorn.. was going with Hamish’s definition of the shaman haiku as an interpretation of nature converging on an internal human experience, mediated by the shaman. It’s lovely when a haiku can be peeled to find more than one meaning!
The wind, the breeze, fanning this way, and that. A haiku like we need more of, beautifully illustrated with words within the words. Thank you – for this haiku, it runs deep.
