This is probably the most poignant haiku I've ever read, which I'm not sure is a compliment. I mean, in a contemporary mentality, it most definitely is, and I'll reiterate that I really like this; but in 'classic', monkish, zenist, abstract bs haiku terms, it probably isn't a compliment.
But screw semantics, and historic hogwash; great piece.

Excellent haiku! very good simile! I have trouble writing poetry sometimes and often feel like it's on the tip of my tongue but I just can't get it out! Great job! Thanks for entering my contest!! Good luck! :)
