home is something that
revolves around who we keep
around our bodies

not location based
it does not need a zip code
it is in our souls

being on the road
can be as much a home as
a house made of bricks

our task is to find
meaning, independent of
place and time and space

but deep within us
through our work and livelihood
whatever that is

What is a Haiku?

In it’s simplest Western form, a Haiku is taught as being a three-line poem of 5-7-5 syllables.
