Watching the starlings
she’s dreaming of catching birds
I like waffles more
NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR:
Illustration description: Black & white art. Left side: a black cat stares out a window, watching a little black bird. Shapes of more birds in the sky visible through the window, as curtains wave gently. Right side foreground: Plate of syrupy pancakes on a table. This is watched by a white cat peeking past table’s edge. Haiku wafts from pancakes to window in black Caflisch Script.
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.
