A Backpacker's Haiku
on May 28, 2016
I must say, good haiku is hard to come by. Authors usually try to say either too much or too little.
Tommy Baggins is one of the rare exceptions. He uses the surroundings of the Appalachian trail to tell the story and then allows the reader to fill in the rest.
Brilliant.
