NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR:

Illustration description: A lavender-grey background. Just right of centre sits a cartoon depiction of a round table surrounded by four figures. One sits on the left of the table with a cheerful, satisfied expression. The words of the haiku seem to come from this figure in black Comic Sans MS Bold text. The other 3 figures sit on the right side of the table, staring wide-eyed at a tower of white, oblong blocks, tantalisingly close to fall over on them. The table is no more than a black ellipse, and the figures are just upright ovals for bodies with circles floating above them, facial features consisting only of eyes. 4 blocks lie scattered across the table, and one block has just started to fall off the tower.

I am mostly a visual artist, but I like to create "found poetry", specifically daily haiku made from the statuses of my Facebook friends. It was my Mom who started this, and officially passed the responsibility onto me when she became too busy.
