walking through romance
on the way to poetry
in search of meaning

    Beautiful. Where did this one come from?

    Simply put, I was walking through the local Borders. As I walked about in search of the poetry section, I noticed I was walking right through the romance section, which was right before I got to poetry.

    I just started an internal commentary on my route through the store, which led to an obsessive attempt at making it into a haiku. It struck me as metaphorical for some reason.
