Kate, each one of these magnificent Haiku’s is incredibly well-written, and just makes one grip on the arm chair tightly, while reading them. These are all so very powerful even standing alone yet, combined together on the same page, they explode as any pressure cooker would with the lid on too tight, and can’t vent the excess steam. You rock, fair lady Poet! Thank you for sharing your remarkable talent.
Often in fewer words, is wherein the power lies. Haiku delivers that. In these, it certainly don't seem to be a nice place to be at. Hopfully the next ones will be powerful in a positive light.
Take care Kate.
Wow. All of these are, indeed, 'high pressure' Haikus, Kate; and all of them are very powerfully penned. Life can really deal some bad cards; and it often takes a very strong and determined soul to survive and overcome them.
The songs and art in this book are about our collective emergence after the pandemic and trauma of the last few years - comprised of 5 collections: World as Refuge, Where We Live, In Our Hands, Rhythms of Change and What We See & Sow.

Excellent Haikus. Must take many preventative measures to avoid these.

Well Done, Haiku Poetess!
