Haiku: Tiny Rocks
Published February 4th, 2008 in English LanguageStuck in shoe bottoms,
tiny rocks make their escape
into your clean home.
Those living in glass houses
should take shoes off at the door.
I wrote the first part and classmate Julia Teichet wrote the Renga (the last two lines).
Ian,
This poem covers the reference to nature — rocks –, everyday routine — shoe bottoms –, home, an abstraction about our home — glass houses –, and a way to avoid the perceived unwanted escape.
