Inspiration. To be clear, I not aiming this high. I thought it would make an interesting project. Seattlein2025: Announcing Special Hugo Award for Best Poem.
Process notes. I firmly believe that if you have to explain art, the work has failed. However, I did want to show that I was paying attention. A while back, a commenter (waves hi!) kindly added pointers on proper haiku form. I think I improved on the immediacy and sensory aspects. Still weak on descriptive imagery. Outdoor & seasonal didn’t really apply. [Horse Haiku]
Also, I acknowledge that I am relying on books by dead white men, and British DWM no less, There is more to the fantasy and science fiction genres than this.
Onwards!
