“Nesom’s haiku strike like neutrinos. Someone has put a copy in the break room.”
— Oak Ridge Research
Description
“We support Nesom’s attempts to create these little turns of phrase.”
— Tucker Retreads
No one else sounds quite like Guy Nesom. His irreverent take on haiku is intended as corrective, but at the same time, homage. Because he is not an “insider” he has no allegiances, and so i capable of viewing the whole enterprise more clearly than those of us more invested might. And if he breaks a few rules, that’s part of the fun, but of course we have to be willing to have fun for that to happen. Enjoy!
