River Atwood Tabor is a freestyle poet in recovery from his first year at university.
This Poem is interesting in that I think it can relate to many people at different times in their life. As our life changes over time so does our connection and understanding of the poem.

wrapped his
arms
around the
wellknown horse
looking
into an animal’s
eye
travelling on his way to
deep madness
Obviously japanese Haiku’s have to follow the 5-7-5 pattern – so my Haiku’s are freestyle. Here’s another one for my friends overseas
Remember the day
remember
whenever you hear the far and subtle
meow
it was einsteins cat
lost in the
dumbwaiter
on a bright and smiling
nuclear day
Echo from the happy new year 2016 to my small but steady Haiku community at this hidden place
