Check it out! I placed first in the 2017 Revista Haiku Contest’s English Division! It’s pretty rare for me to write a 5/7/5 haiku, and unheard of for me to write one that rhymes, so it was definitely something different. Click the link above and scroll down to read the poem!

The meaning of life
and the mystery of life
are one and the same.Originally published: Haikuniverse
It’s a bit different from what I normally write, and I was hesitant to submit it anywhere. But there it is, written out as a sentence and following a 5-7-5 scheme.
The basic idea of the haiku is this: The question is the answer. We’re here to wonder why we’re here. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be justified in wondering about it anyway.
Kinda pretentious, huh? Don’t worry, though. I’ve written several proper haiku (if there is such a thing!) over the last few days, and I look forward to sharing them with you soon!
