Thought I would have a go at doing a haiku. Felt inspired by some wonderful pieces posted recently. Its about being in love with somebody, but knowing it can never work out.


As fiction you are
stuck on the fleeting promise
to be something real.

...image -- catching that same feeling of incompleteness that one can sometimes gain from aspects the form itself -- a reaching outwards , rather than the usual final line summation . A complete work suggesting incompleteness -- well done

I keep coming back to this as I felt from my first reading there was something there but couldn't put my finger on it. 
 
With so few words you've had my mind in knots. 
 
I suppose your intro says it all - but there's something else there too. Possibly imagining things, possibly too dense to work it out. 
 
Still, I like it. 
 
All the best, 
 
Phil.
