Memory Throws a Last-Minute Curveball




Memory Throws a Last-Minute Curveball

your name, the punchline,
why I'm standing in this room --
all veer out of reach

  1. Good lord. I ended up standing in the main office last week looking sheepishly at the administrative assistant, not knowing AT ALL the reason I had arrived in that place at that time until I climbed all the way back to my room, and then it was all clear to me, so I wrote my reason on a slip of paper and trundled back down to the office again. Your haiku seems almost like it came from a fortune cookie.
