NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR:
Illustration description: Sky blue background. A large, yellow circle sits topmost and right of centre. The black (perhaps backlit shape of a winged human hangs in front of the circle, trailing debris upwards as though falling. The words of the haiku occupy the left-hand side of the image in black Lithos Pro Regular font, as though falling along with the figure.
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.
