Haiku Lesson
*not a tradition haiku because it is subjective it is my judgement you are told to see the vine strangling the maple something a person would do, further you are told my my imagining that the vine is seeking revenge - so this is more Free Verse than haiku
a bittersweet vine
strangles the dormant maple
ribbon of revenge
* haiku - objective, factual with a season, with 2 parts and implied metaphor
a bittersweet vine
twines about the maple tree --
swollen knuckles ache
I am here, I see the vine, I show you the vine, I see my hand at the same time, now you SEE the relationship, you FEEL, I don't tell you what to feel. The change occurs in where my eyes have fallen first up & out and then down to my hands
