read all of this at some point

i hope it brings joy

that's all for this week - a short week of haiku. i remember this was the week i finished putting together the haiku book for Haze's birthday. i mostly grabbed from the haiku i'd written already but in some cases i did write new ones that are part of this week but not documented as such - the front and back of the book are above (the image for this week's haiku) and the inside front is below. if you'd like to see more check it out on my website in full under the "works" section or "books" section (link to my website in my Vocal profile) -- if you'd like one like it, please don't hesitate to reach out!
